Wide athletic capitals with chamfered bowls and rough chips through the slabs
Abcd Varsity is a wide athletic slab in which the flat ends sit close, the bowls chamfer at the corners and irregular chips eat through the heavy slabs, so a two-word title reads as a weathered collegiate board.

Fine grain and micro-texture excel in 300 DPI print, sublimation, and screen print rather than small vinyl weeding.
Visual anatomy & craft review
The A carries a wide shoulder over a low crossbar, the B stacks two squared bowls, the C clips its terminals and the chips scatter across stems and feet at uneven sizes, leaving the counters readable beneath the wear. The drawn erosion is the character: the chips ship in the file rather than coming from a filter, which is why the sample sets one large word over a smaller cap line in a second colour. Because the chips are fine, the face wants 34 pt before they read as texture and not as print failure, and it holds at any scale in print rather than cutting small in vinyl. The pale ground and the small caption are presentation; the cream and ochre lettering is the face.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Abcd Varsity’s stroke geometry.
The wide slabs read across a hall, and the chipped texture keeps a two-word title authentic at 80 mm on a painted board.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Paint an 800 by 300 mm board: set the title at 80 mm, keep 20 mm of border so no chip is broken by the edge, and set the year in a 30 mm caps beneath.
Pre-production check
Chips painted over a board edge look like damage; check the mounted sign and keep 18 mm of margin.
The worn collegiate weight suits a fleece, and the wide forms stay solid at 65 mm across a printed back in one flat ink.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 320 mm back print: set the team name at 65 mm, keep the chips as they ship rather than adding a filter, and leave 50 mm of clear fabric beneath for the number.
Pre-production check
A second distress filter printed over the file texture closes the counters; check the film and print only the texture supplied.
The chipped slabs compress into a badge, and the wide letters keep the club name clear at 30 mm on a printed roundel in two inks.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an 80 mm roundel: set the club name at 30 mm, keep the chips 2 mm inside the circle, and set the founding year in a 9 pt caps along the lower arc.
Pre-production check
A chip broken by the roundel edge reads as a cut; check the die and keep 3 mm of clear ground at the rim.
