A condensed slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed terminals and a consistent, low-contrast stroke. The letterforms are tall and compact with a tight rhythm, and many glyphs show slightly flared or bulb-like ends that read as punched or stamped. Curves are firm and upright, counters are relatively narrow, and joins feel practical rather than calligraphic. The overall texture is dense and even, with subtle irregularities in terminal shaping that add character without breaking legibility.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and short-to-medium text where a condensed slab can add density and presence without sacrificing clarity. It fits especially well in print-forward applications like packaging, labels, menus, and poster typography, and can also support editorial layouts that need a vintage or utilitarian accent.
The font carries a vintage, workmanlike tone—part typewriter, part old poster—and feels at home in archival or industrial contexts. Its narrow stance and sturdy serifs give it a slightly stern, authoritative voice, while the softened brackets keep it approachable and readable.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable condensed slab for everyday setting while injecting a touch of historical, stamped character through its bracketed serifs and terminal shaping. It balances practicality and personality to remain versatile across display and supporting text roles.
In the samples, spacing and word shape stay coherent at text sizes, and the condensed proportions create an efficient, column-friendly color. Numerals follow the same tall, compact construction, helping mixed alphanumeric settings keep a uniform vertical cadence.
