A condensed, heavy slab-serif design with an engraved inline cut running through the strokes. Forms are tall and tightly proportioned, with squared terminals and sturdy, blocky construction that reads like display wood type. The inline detail is consistently applied as a narrow vertical notch or channel that creates a carved, dimensional effect without fully breaking the silhouettes. Curves (C, O, S) stay compact and weighty, while joins and corners remain crisp for a firm, mechanical rhythm.
Best used in headlines, posters, and signage where the inline engraving can read clearly and add character. It also fits branding marks, event titles, and packaging that want a bold, vintage display look with extra texture. Use generous tracking and avoid very small sizes to keep the carved detail from filling in visually.
The overall tone is loud and declarative, with a vintage show-poster attitude. The carved inline suggests signage, printmaking, and hand-burnished lettering, giving it a slightly theatrical, old-time industrial feel. Its tight proportions and dark color deliver a forceful, no-nonsense voice suited to attention-grabbing headlines.
The design appears intended as a compact, high-impact display face that evokes classic slab-serif poster lettering while adding an inline cut to create depth and ornament. Its proportions and heavy mass prioritize instant recognition and a strong typographic presence over long-form readability.
The inline carving varies slightly by letter shape, acting like a highlight/shadow channel that adds texture and depth at large sizes. Counters are relatively small and the interior detailing becomes more apparent as the size increases, reinforcing its role as a display face rather than a text workhorse.
