A condensed slab serif with heavy, squared terminals and a strongly rectilinear construction. Curves are tightened into chamfered, almost octagonal forms—most noticeable in round letters and numerals—creating a crisp, cut-corner silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and the serifs read as blunt, unbracketed blocks that reinforce a compact, vertical rhythm. Counters are small and apertures tend to be closed, which strengthens the dark, emphatic texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, labels, posters, and display copy where a compact footprint and high impact are desired. It can work well for branding and packaging that wants a sturdy, heritage-leaning voice, and for signage-style applications where clarity and firmness matter more than airy readability.
The overall tone is rugged and workmanlike, with a clear reference to signage and stamped or poster lettering. Its compact, blocky presence feels assertive and no-nonsense, leaning toward a vintage industrial and western-influenced mood rather than refined editorial elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-saving display slab with a distinctive cut-corner geometry. It emphasizes solidity and character—suggesting traditional poster and sign lettering—while keeping forms tightly condensed for efficient, attention-grabbing setting.
In text settings the tight spacing and dense weight create strong color and impact, especially in all caps. The chamfered shaping gives the face a distinctive mechanical snap, while the narrow proportions help long headlines fit without losing presence.
