A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with broad, bracketed serifs and compact, punchy proportions. Strokes show noticeable modulation and a slightly calligraphic, carved feel, with rounded joins and subtly notched or scooped terminals that create lively texture in bold sizes. Counters are relatively tight, and the overall silhouette is chunky and rhythmic, with letters maintaining clear, distinct shapes despite the dense color.
Best suited to short, impactful settings such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and product packaging where its bold texture and italic movement can lead the composition. It can also work for signage and titles that need a vintage, attention-grabbing voice, especially at larger sizes where the sculpted details remain clear.
The tone is loud, nostalgic, and characterful—evoking vintage signage and display typography with a friendly swagger. Its energetic slant and chunky slabs give it a confident, theatrical presence that feels playful rather than formal.
Likely designed as a high-impact display slab that blends traditional sign-painting or carved-letter cues with a pronounced italic dynamism. The goal appears to be strong legibility at headline sizes while delivering a distinctive, nostalgic personality through chunky serifs and shaped terminals.
Uppercase forms read sturdy and poster-like, while the lowercase introduces more movement and softness, increasing the sense of momentum in text. Numerals match the same chunky, sculpted styling, supporting consistent display setting across words and figures.
