A heavy, blocky slab serif with squared, flat-ended strokes and prominent, rectangular serifs. Curves are largely engineered into octagonal forms with chamfered corners, producing a cut, beveled look rather than smooth bowls. Counters are compact and openings are tight, while joins and terminals stay crisp and geometric; several letters show small notches and inside corner cut-ins that read like subtle ink-trap or stencil-like detailing. Uppercase forms are wide and sturdy with strong horizontals, and the lowercase follows the same rugged construction with sturdy stems and simplified, angular bowls.
Best suited to display roles such as posters, headlines, storefront-style signage, badges, and packaging where a bold, rugged presence is desired. It also works for short blocks of copy in promotional settings when a strong vintage or western-industrial voice is needed.
The overall tone is tough and workmanlike, with a classic Americana/Wild West flavor and a utilitarian, print-shop solidity. It feels assertive and attention-grabbing, leaning toward nostalgic display rather than refined editorial text.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a robust slab-serif skeleton and a deliberately machined, chamfered geometry. The consistent block construction and compact counters suggest an intention toward durable, high-contrast visibility and a nostalgic, print-era display character.
The numerals match the same squared-off construction and dense color, keeping a consistent, sign-ready rhythm. The heavy weight and tight counters create strong impact at headline sizes, while the angular shaping and small interior notches become more apparent as size increases.
