A very heavy slab-serif display face with broad proportions and an inline cut that runs through the main strokes, creating a carved, hollowed look. The letterforms are built from blunt, rectangular serifs and sturdy verticals, with rounded bowls that stay compact against the overall width. The inline is consistently offset, reading like an interior stripe or incised groove, which adds a secondary rhythm across counters and stems. Terminals are squared and confident, and the numerals match the same chunky, cut-through construction for a unified, sign-like texture.
Works best for headlines and short display copy where the inline carving can remain crisp—posters, storefront signage, event titles, and bold branding. It can also suit packaging and label-style design that benefits from a vintage, showbill aesthetic, especially when set with ample tracking and generous line spacing.
The overall tone feels showy and theatrical, with a strong old-poster energy. The inline carving gives it a crafted, woodtype-and-signage vibe that reads as both nostalgic and attention-seeking. Its weight and decorative interior stripe make it feel bold, playful, and slightly dramatic rather than quiet or refined.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through mass and a distinctive inline incision, combining classic slab-serif structure with a decorative, engraved feel. It prioritizes visibility and character over neutrality, aiming for a memorable, retro-styled display voice.
Because the inline detail is a key part of the silhouette, the face reads best when given enough size and contrast to keep the interior cuts clear. In dense settings the carved stripe can visually merge, so spacing and point size become important for maintaining the dimensional effect.
