Ornamental western capitals with long curved spurs and heavy slab feet
Western Goldrush
Western Goldrush is an ornamental western serif in which the capitals carry long curved spurs, the feet flare into heavy slabs and the middle letters stay narrow, so a word reads as a saloon sign.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Western Goldrush.
The W opens with a wide curved spur and the letters after it keep a narrow body: the E holds three arms with spurred ends, the S swells through two heavy curves and the G closes with a straight bar and a curled ear. The H of the second word repeats the spur gesture on both stems, which is what gives the composition its symmetry. Weight is heavy in the verticals with a moderate contrast, and the spurs are thin enough to need a coated stock at small sizes. The fit is tight with deliberate overlaps where the spurs cross the next letter, which is how a painted sign reads. The sand ground, the dark brown ink, the small ornaments and the three caption lines are presentation; the typeface is the two words.

Label for a small-batch bourbon
The spurred capitals give a bottle label its period character, and the heavy feet hold at 14 pt where a lighter western face would lose its detail.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 70 by 90 mm label: set the brand at 14 pt, set the proof in a 6 pt caps serif beneath, and keep 6 mm of margin so the curved spurs are not cut by the label's oval die.
Pre-production check
An oval die crops spurs unevenly; check the die line against the artwork and move the type block to the flattest part of the oval.
Sign for a country-themed celebration
The ornate weight reads at 10 cm on a board and gives a themed event a sign that looks painted rather than digitally printed.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 900 by 600 mm board: set the greeting at 10 cm across the middle, set the names in a 5 cm caps serif beneath, and leave 10 cm of border so the spurs stay clear of the frame.
Pre-production check
A narrow body painted large looks stretched; check the board at full size and keep the letter height consistent rather than filling the width.
Sign for a barbecue or steakhouse
The saloon register suits a restaurant front, and the heavy slabs read across a window at 15 cm without a light behind them.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Cut a 600 by 300 mm window decal: set the restaurant name at 15 cm, set the opening hours in a 5 cm sans beneath, and keep 8 cm from the glass edge so the spurs are not trimmed by the frame.
Pre-production check
Window vinyl viewed from outside reverses; check a mirrored proof and keep the spurs simple enough to read through glass.
