A high-contrast slab-serif with heavy, rounded slab terminals and pronounced bracketed joins. Stems are robust while internal joins and curves taper, creating a crisp thick–thin rhythm that reads as “inked” and slightly mechanical. Many strokes end in softened, bulb-like slabs that echo typewriter or wood-type cues, and counters tend toward rounded, open shapes. Overall spacing feels steady and utilitarian, while the distinctive terminal treatment adds personality and texture in text.
Well-suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, and signage where the dramatic terminals and contrast can do the work. It also fits packaging and branding that want a vintage or typewriter-inspired tone, and short editorial callouts where texture is desirable. For longer passages, it works best when set with generous size and spacing to keep the heavy slabs from visually clustering.
The font carries a nostalgic, typewriter-adjacent voice with a hint of saloon poster flair. Its bold slab endings and punchy contrast make it feel confident and a little mischievous—friendly enough for casual headlines, but assertive in tone. The overall impression is retro and characterful rather than sleek or minimalist.
The design appears intended to blend slab-serif sturdiness with typewriter and wood-type character, using rounded slab terminals and strong contrast to create an attention-grabbing, nostalgic texture. Its consistent terminal motifs suggest a focus on recognizable personality and punchy display performance over neutrality.
The design leans on strong horizontal slabs and rounded terminals to create a consistent beat across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Curved letters (like O, C, S) show smooth, even bowls with tight transitions into thicker terminals, producing a tactile, stamped look. The numerals maintain the same contrast and terminal language, helping the set feel cohesive in display contexts.
