A heavy, high-impact serif with pronounced wedge-like, flared terminals and compact internal counters. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation with brash, triangular bracket transitions where stems meet serifs, creating a carved, chiseled rhythm. The overall texture is dense and dark, with sturdy verticals and slightly compressed bowls that keep letterforms tight and punchy at display sizes. Numerals and capitals match the same weighty construction, maintaining consistent flare and contrast across the set.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and promotional typography where a bold, characterful serif is needed. It works well for posters, packaging, mastheads, and sports or collegiate-style branding, and can also support short subheads or pull quotes when generous leading is available.
The font conveys a confident, old-school energy—part editorial gravitas, part vintage sign and poster vernacular. Its sharp flares and dramatic contrast add a slightly theatrical edge, while the broad, blocky massing keeps the tone assertive and attention-grabbing.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a classic serif vocabulary, using flared terminals and strong contrast to create a memorable, display-forward voice. The consistent, sculpted endings suggest an emphasis on dramatic silhouettes and print-style impact over neutral body-text restraint.
The flared endings and pointed joins create a crisp silhouette that reads especially well in short bursts, while longer passages form a strong, textured color. Curves and diagonals tend to resolve into angular terminals, giving the face a distinctive, carved look rather than a soft, bookish feel.
