A heavy, angular serif with chamfered corners and faceted, almost octagonal geometry throughout. Strokes are predominantly straight and vertical, with crisp internal counters and squared apertures, while terminals often finish in small forked/spurred serif forms. The rhythm is compact and emphatic, with sturdy capitals and slightly more intricate lowercase details that maintain the same notched, cut-in styling. Numerals follow the same blocky, beveled construction for consistent texture in display settings.
Best suited to posters, labels, signage, and packaging where a forceful, vintage voice is desired. It also works well for headlines and logotypes that benefit from a western or heritage feel, and for sports or event graphics where the dense, chiseled shapes stay punchy at larger sizes.
The letterforms evoke old poster typography with a strong frontier and workmanlike character, reading as bold, rugged, and historical. Its sharp cuts and decorative spurs also carry a spirited, competitive tone reminiscent of team marks and event lettering.
The design appears intended to modernize traditional display serif forms by combining robust, poster-like weight with ornamental spurs and beveled cuts. Its goal is high impact and a distinctive edge texture, prioritizing personality and presence over long-form readability.
The overall color is dense and even, but the many chamfers and inner cuts create a lively edge that prevents the face from feeling purely geometric. In text, the strong top and bottom silhouettes and the frequent corner notches become a defining texture, favoring short lines and prominent sizing.
