A heavy, square-shouldered slab serif with broad proportions and a strong, even typographic color. Serifs are thick and flat with squared ends, giving strokes a chiseled, poster-like solidity and clear horizontal emphasis. Curves are full and generous but controlled, with tight joins and minimal taper, while counters stay open enough to hold up under the weight. Spacing feels built for display: bold shapes pack closely yet maintain a steady rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and other high-impact display settings where bold letterforms need to carry from a distance. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a sturdy, old-school slab voice, and it can work for sports or team-style branding where weight and presence are the priority.
The overall tone is assertive and dependable, with a vintage print and Americana-leaning presence. Its blocky slabs and wide stance convey authority and a workmanlike, industrial confidence that reads as classic and familiar rather than delicate or refined.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact and clarity through wide, square-ended slabs and a dense, confident texture. It prioritizes strong silhouette recognition and a familiar, heritage display feel, aiming for dependable readability in bold, attention-grabbing typography.
The design balances rounded bowls with squared terminals, creating a consistent mix of softness and structure. Numerals match the letters in mass and footprint, reinforcing a uniform, signage-friendly texture when set in sequences or short bursts of text.
