A heavy display serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that broaden from the stems. Curves are full and bulbous, with sharp inner notches and tight counters that create a punchy, poster-like texture. Terminals often taper into pointed beaks or triangular cuts, giving letters a carved, decorative feel while remaining largely upright. Width is generous and rhythm is lively, with noticeable shape variation between glyphs and emphatic joins that add visual character at large sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, event promotions, album/cover graphics, packaging, and bold brand marks where its flared detailing can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial headlines or pull quotes, but the dense counters and strong styling make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The tone is playful and theatrical, mixing vintage sign-painting energy with a slightly mischievous, storybook edge. Its bold presence and spiky details suggest fun, spectacle, and a touch of camp, making text feel animated rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a decorative, flared-serif silhouette—combining broad proportions, sculpted terminals, and dramatic inner cuts to create a distinctive vintage display voice.
Lowercase forms lean toward single‑storey, highly simplified silhouettes with distinctive wedge terminals, while caps carry strong, flaring tops and feet that read well in headlines. The numerals and punctuation in the sample hold the same chunky contrast and sharp cut-ins, producing a dense, attention-grabbing color in paragraphs.
