For Sale

I shall be selling all my letterpress type and equipment over the coming months.

I am describing everything to the best of my ability. I do not know the correct names of some fonts, and perhaps some of the other are wrong. There can also be differences between founder.

Please click on the photos to get larger images, and inspect them with care!



Lot 84: Headline 60pt




Workhorse font in a useful 'intermediate' size (if you have 60pt quads and spaces). Doesn't seem to have had much use: clean and sharp.
N.B. Only two lower case 'p's.

Lot 85: Impact outline 24pt


Stephenson Blake. 7A, 14a. I bought this fount new, and it has had very little use, as you can see.

Stephenson Blake. 3A, 6a. I bought the fount new, and it has had very little use, as you can see.

Lot 90: Narrow gothic titling 72pt




Quite clean and sharp, but there is a distinct lack of punctuation: maybe this was a feature of the original synopsis?
The ampersand is obviously a foreigner.

Lot 101R: Gill sans 36pt





Lot 101S: Gill sans 36pt


I was using all this Gill 36pt as a single fount. However, it is clearly two founts: 101S has a square nick, and 101R -- a larger fount but showing a little more wear -- has a rounded nick. There are also some differences in design, notably the lower-case 'f's.
