League Gothic is a sans serif typeface, a revival of an old classic, Alternate Gothic #1. It was originally designed by Morris Fuller Benton for the American Type Founders Company in 1903. The company went bankrupt in 1993, and since the original typeface was created before 1923, the typeface is in the public domain. It’s been revised & updated with contributions from Micah Rich, Tyler Finck, and Dannci, who contributed extra glyphs.

In October 2020 Tyler took some pandemic time to create a variable version (wdth) of League Gothic. It includes lots of improvements to individual glyph construction as well as composites (especially diacritics). Vietnamese support was added, too.
