A heavy, block-like slab serif with broad proportions and strongly bracketed serifs. Strokes are low-contrast and confidently weighted, with rounded joins and softened inner corners that keep the texture from feeling brittle. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, and the overall rhythm is compact and even, producing a dense, poster-ready color in paragraphs. The numerals and capitals sit squarely with a stable baseline and a slightly rounded, workmanlike finish to terminals.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and signage where strong presence and immediate legibility are needed. The bold slab construction also makes it a good fit for branding, labels, and packaging that benefit from a rugged, traditional voice. It can work for short editorial callouts and subheads when a dense, emphatic texture is desired.
The tone is sturdy and no-nonsense, with an industrial, vintage-vernacular feel. Its mass and squared structure read as assertive and dependable, while the rounded shaping adds an approachable, friendly warmth rather than a sharp, formal edge.
Likely designed as a straightforward, dependable slab serif that prioritizes impact and clarity, pairing a robust outline with softened detailing to stay readable and personable at larger sizes.
In continuous text the face maintains a consistent, dark typographic color and clear word shapes, helped by its open apertures and generous, squared serifs. The overall impression is of a practical display slab that can also hold together in short blocks of text when set with comfortable spacing.
