A heavy, chunky slab serif with squared, unbracketed serifs and a compact overall footprint. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with minimal contrast and rounded outer corners that soften the blocky construction. Counters tend to be small and sturdy, and the joins and terminals read as blunt and deliberate, giving the letters a dense, emphatic rhythm. The lowercase follows the same robust logic, with simple, weighty forms and short extenders, while figures are similarly wide-shouldered and built for impact.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, and branding where a compact, high-impact slab serif is desired. It also fits packaging and labels that benefit from a vintage or western-leaning voice, and works well for short editorial callouts or mastheads where its dense texture can be an advantage.
The tone is assertive and nostalgic, recalling display lettering used in posters, storefronts, and old-fashioned headlines. Its softened corners keep it approachable and slightly playful rather than harsh, while the strong slabs add a confident, hardworking character.
The design appears intended as a bold display slab that prioritizes punchy silhouettes and a nostalgic, poster-ready personality. Its sturdy construction and softened geometry suggest a goal of balancing strong presence with friendly readability in large-format applications.
In text settings the dark color and tight interior spaces create a strong “inked” presence, which can look powerful at large sizes but may feel heavy in long passages. The overall silhouette is consistent and stable, with clear, recognizable lettershapes designed to read quickly in bold statements.
