A condensed slab-serif with tall proportions, strong verticals, and square, unbracketed serifs that read as firm horizontal caps on stems. Strokes stay largely even throughout, with a tight, vertical rhythm and minimal curve modeling; joins and terminals feel squared-off and mechanical. Counters are compact and the overall fit is tight, creating dense word shapes; capitals are especially columnar, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, utilitarian structure with single-storey forms and sturdy terminals.
Best suited to headlines and short settings where its condensed footprint and strong slabs can create impact without taking much horizontal space. It works well for posters, signage, labels, and packaging systems that need a robust, vintage-leaning voice, and can also serve as a distinctive logotype base when set with generous tracking.
The face conveys a blunt, hardworking tone with a vintage-industrial and poster-like presence. Its compact width and emphatic slabs suggest heritage signage and display typography, giving text a no-nonsense, attention-forward character.
Likely designed to deliver high-impact, space-efficient display typography with a clear, sturdy silhouette. The emphasis on square terminals and consistent stroke weight points to an intent for bold, reproducible letterforms reminiscent of historical wood-type and industrial lettering.
The condensed build and heavy terminals create strong texture in lines of text, with pronounced vertical emphasis and crisp silhouette edges. Numerals match the same narrow, sturdy construction, keeping a consistent, sign-ready color across mixed copy.
