A heavy, block-forward slab serif with broad proportions and rounded joins that keep the silhouette friendly despite the weight. Stems are thick and dominant, with chunky, bracketed slabs and squared terminals that read clearly at display sizes. The shapes show small interior notches/counters and stepped cut-ins on several letters, adding a mildly decorative, carved/wood-type feel. Curves are full and compact (notably in C, G, O, S), and counters remain open enough to avoid clogging in large settings, while fine internal details suggest caution at very small sizes.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, headlines, signage, packaging, and logo wordmarks where its heavy slabs and broad stance can carry the layout. It also works for short callsouts and punchy subheads, especially in designs aiming for a vintage or Americana-leaning voice.
The overall tone is bold, confident, and slightly retro, evoking vintage posters, traditional signage, and a subtle Western or collegiate energy. Its decorative notches add a playful, handmade edge while the massing stays authoritative and solid.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a robust slab-serif skeleton, combining classic wood-type sturdiness with small decorative cut-ins to create a distinctive, branded texture in large-scale typography.
Numerals match the letterforms in weight and width, with strong, rounded bowls and sturdy horizontals that keep them prominent in headlines. Uppercase forms feel particularly emblematic and sign-like, while lowercase retains the same chunky rhythm for cohesive text in short bursts.
