A condensed display serif with chunky, squared forms and flared wedge terminals. Stems are heavy and mostly uniform, with subtle chamfering that creates a beveled, cut-in look at joins and corners. Counters tend to be tall and narrow, and many curves resolve into flattened or squared shoulders, giving the alphabet a rigid, poster-like rhythm. The lowercase keeps a compact, workmanlike structure with simple bowls and short extenders, while figures follow the same blocky, vertical emphasis.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, labels, and storefront-style signage where its condensed width can fit long words without losing presence. It also works well for vintage-leaning branding and logotypes that want a sturdy, carved display tone.
The font reads as bold, old-poster lettering with a rugged, no-nonsense attitude. Its chiseled edges and tall compression evoke Western and circus/broadsheet traditions, leaning toward dramatic, theatrical signage rather than refined book typography.
Likely drawn to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing serif voice that feels cut or stamped, combining Western-inspired flares with industrial solidity for strong headline performance.
Uppercase shapes are especially architectural, with crisp interior notches and pronounced verticality that boosts impact in all-caps settings. The overall texture is dense and dark, so spacing and line length will strongly influence readability at smaller sizes.
