A very heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced contrast between thick stems and finer joins, giving the forms a carved, display-like feel. Serifs are compact and strongly bracketed, often resolving into wedge-like terminals that add motion and weight at the ends. Counters are relatively small and rounded, and the overall drawing favors bulging curves and lively stroke modulation over strict geometric regularity. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and generally compact apertures, while the numerals are bold, rounded, and tightly fit, reinforcing a dense color on the page.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, bold headlines, and editorial openers where its chunky contrast and energetic slant can read as a feature rather than a constraint. It also fits packaging, signage, and branding—especially when a retro or sporty tone is desired and ample size/spacing can preserve the counters.
The font projects a bold, vintage exuberance—confident and showy, with a slightly theatrical, poster-era energy. Its italic slant and swelling curves add a sense of speed and swagger, making it feel at home in expressive, attention-grabbing settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a classic serif voice, blending traditional bracketed serifs with an italic, high-energy silhouette. Its construction emphasizes expressive curves and strong terminals to create a memorable, poster-ready texture.
At text sizes the heavy weight and tight internal spaces can create a dark texture, while at larger sizes the bracketed serifs and curved joins become distinctive. The rhythm is intentionally dynamic rather than rigid, with noticeable forward momentum across both caps and lowercase.
