A tall, condensed hand-drawn print with sharply tapered terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads like a flexible pen or brush. Strokes are mostly upright with a lively, slightly irregular rhythm, and curves often pinch into fine points at joins and endings. Counters are narrow and vertical, and overall spacing feels compact, producing a dark, animated texture in lines of text. Capitals are notably elongated and column-like, while lowercase mixes simple bowl forms with occasional looped or hooked details in descenders and joins.
Best suited for short to medium display text such as posters, book and album covers, playful packaging, invitations, and branding moments that benefit from a handmade voice. It can also work for pull quotes or section heads where a condensed, high-contrast texture helps words stand out.
The tone is quirky and characterful, balancing a storybook friendliness with a slightly dramatic, inky flair. Its tall proportions and pointed details give it a mischievous, theatrical energy that feels handcrafted rather than engineered.
Likely designed to provide a distinctive hand-lettered alternative for display typography: narrow, tall forms with emphatic contrast and pointed terminals that create instant personality and a lively vertical rhythm.
The design shows intentional inconsistency in stroke finishing—some terminals end as hairline needles while others blunt slightly—adding to the drawn-by-hand impression. Numerals and punctuation (as seen in the sample) keep the same tall stance, supporting display settings where personality matters more than uniformity.
