A very heavy serif design with pronounced slab-like serifs and compact, blocky proportions. Strokes show clear contrast, with strong verticals and noticeably thinner joins and interior curves, creating a crisp, assertive rhythm. The serifs are broad and mostly square-ended with slight bracketing, and several letters show wedge-like terminals that add a carved, poster-like bite. Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is dense, giving the face a strong, dark presence at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography where impact and texture are desired—posters, headlines, packaging, and cover work. The dense weight and tight counters make it especially effective in short titles, badges, and branding marks, where its slab structure and contrast read as deliberate character rather than body-text neutrality.
The font conveys a bold, old-style poster sensibility—confident, sturdy, and a bit rugged. Its heavy slabs and high-contrast shaping feel rooted in traditional print and signage, projecting authority and a classic, vintage tone.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a classic slab-serif structure, combining sturdy rectangular serifs with high-contrast shaping to create a vintage, print-forward voice for attention-first typography.
Round letters (like O/C/G) keep a firm, squared-off feel through their terminals, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are sharply cut and emphatic. Numerals are weighty and attention-grabbing, matching the caps in visual density, which helps maintain consistency in headlines and short bursts of text.
