A heavy, slab-serif display face with broad proportions and strongly bracketed, blocky serifs. Strokes are dense and confident, with gently rounded corners and small internal notches that keep counters from closing up at large weights. The rhythm is compact and punchy, with sturdy verticals, slightly swelling curves, and a generally even texture that reads as solid black in text. Numerals share the same chunky construction and wide footprint, matching the letterforms’ weight and stance.
Best suited to headlines, poster work, and large-scale typography where its mass and slab structure can carry the layout. It also fits branding, packaging, and signage that benefit from a vintage, high-impact display look, especially in short lines or wordmarks.
The overall tone feels bold and nostalgic, evoking vintage poster typography and old-time advertising. Its chunky slabs and softened corners give it a friendly, approachable toughness rather than a sharp or formal voice.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact and a classic, poster-driven personality through oversized slabs, broad letterforms, and softened, ink-friendly details that preserve clarity at heavy weight.
In the sample text, the dense color and substantial serifs create strong horizontal banding, making short headlines and emphatic phrases feel especially impactful. The design’s rounded joins and generous interior shaping help maintain recognizable forms despite the very heavy stroke weight.
