Hi There, does anyone know which font I see on the back of footballers' shirts in the seventies? I absolutely love the sight of those numbers, but there is almost no information on the web on this subject. Cheers, Marco

Those weren’t fonts in the sense we intend today.

 

Ah, very interesting. So there is a chance someone made these numbers especially for the shirts. Well, if anyone has any information on this, although it might be considered off-topic, please share it.

You could try to get in touch with Christoph Koeberlin. He already published a vintage football jersey numerals font, and hinted at more styles.

Ooh, thank you!
