A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared geometry and sharply chamfered corners that give many strokes an octagonal feel. Serifs are bold and mostly unbracketed, with flat terminals and frequent cut-ins/ink-trap-like notches at joins and corners that add snap and texture. Counters run compact and squarish, strokes stay largely even, and the overall rhythm is emphatically chunky with pronounced, graphic silhouettes across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for large-scale display typography such as posters, headlines, signage, and branding where the bold slabs and angular cuts can read clearly. It also fits packaging and labels that want a vintage or western-flavored impact, especially in short phrases and titling.
The letterforms read as classic display vernacular: confident, punchy, and slightly rough-hewn. The angular cuts and stout slabs evoke frontier posters and showbills, giving it an attention-grabbing, nostalgic tone with a hint of industrial toughness.
Likely designed as a high-impact display slab that channels traditional show-poster and western sign aesthetics through squared construction, strong slab serifs, and deliberate corner chamfers for a carved, durable look.
The design leans on consistent corner chamfers and interior notches as a unifying motif, which helps keep dense shapes from clogging while maintaining a strongly carved, sign-paint-like feel. Numerals match the cap weight and geometry, supporting bold, headline-oriented composition.
