Home › 1896
1896 is a heavy square typeface with blocky, geometric letterforms that feel solid and industrial. The corners are squared off and the strokes carry serious mass, giving the whole alphabet a sturdy, machine-shop presence that suggests stamped metal and turn-of-the-century factory signage.
It works for sports branding, bold posters, machine-themed logos, and heavy-duty T-shirt graphics where strength is the message. 1896 is free to download as a TrueType file, and you can preview it with your own text first to see how its chunky square forms hold up across a team name, headline, or short slogan.
