A heavy slab-serif with broad proportions, firm vertical stress, and clearly bracketed slabs that read as thick, rectangular terminals. Strokes show noticeable contrast—thick stems paired with comparatively lighter joins and interior strokes—creating crisp counters and strong black–white rhythm. The letterforms are compact and sturdy with squared-off shoulders and blunt joins, while curves (O, C, S) stay rounded but muscular. Lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike construction with a short-to-moderate x-height feel and robust ascenders/descenders, keeping texture dense and highly legible at display sizes.
This typeface excels in headlines, posters, and branding where strong presence and immediate readability matter. It also fits packaging and signage that benefit from a rugged, traditional slab-serif tone, and it can anchor logos or wordmarks that need a solid, vintage-leaning foundation.
The overall tone is confident and no-nonsense, with a utilitarian, print-forward character that recalls vintage posters, varsity lettering, and classic editorial headlines. Its weight and slabs give it a dependable, authoritative voice that can feel both nostalgic and industrial depending on pairing and color.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a classic slab-serif vocabulary—wide, bold forms, pronounced bracketed serifs, and punchy contrast—suited to display typography that should feel established and dependable.
In running text the heavy slabs and tight internal shapes produce a dark, emphatic color, making it best where impact is desired. Numerals are bold and attention-grabbing, matching the alphabet’s sturdy, poster-ready build.
