A quirky serif display face with consistently uneven, inked contours and a slight rightward slant. Strokes are sturdy and low-contrast, with soft, blobby terminals and small wedge-like serifs that feel stamped rather than crisply drawn. Many letters sit on distinctive, wavy baseline bars (and several are effectively built-in underlined forms), giving the set a strong horizontal rhythm and a deliberate “imperfect” texture. Counters are generally open and rounded, and the overall proportions lean compact in width with a tall lowercase presence relative to capitals.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, headlines, packaging, and illustrated branding where its irregular texture and underline-like bases can be a feature. It can also work for playful book covers or album art, but the strong horizontal bars may feel busy in long-form text or tight leading.
The font conveys a mischievous, offbeat tone—like a playful riff on old print or typing aesthetics filtered through a handmade, cartoonish sensibility. Its repeated baseline/underline motif adds a cheeky emphasis, making lines of text feel energetic and slightly chaotic while staying visually coherent.
Likely designed to inject character and humor through a deliberately imperfect, handmade silhouette and a distinctive baseline/underline motif. The goal appears to be immediate visual identity—creating a memorable, decorative voice that stands apart from conventional serif display styles.
The built-in underline/baseline elements are a defining feature and will strongly shape paragraph color and line spacing; they read as decorative rules rather than conventional serifs. Numerals and punctuation follow the same wobbly, inked logic, reinforcing a unified, intentionally irregular texture across the set.
