Montotype

Bought a drawer full of this type off eBay which also contained a perpetual calendar which is huge! 72pt! but this has some dates Missing :( The type has been cast on a Monotype Supercaster, the grooves are there to save metal when casting. No idea what type face is yet but it's 48pt on a 60pt body. and complete U/L with numbers, symbols and punctuation. My posty didn't look that impressed carrying it up the garden path!

WOODTYPE

I just couldn't believe my luck when I spotted this on eBay, pick up only and only 20 mins away from where I live, all for only £99. WHAT A BARGAIN! The cabinet need a little work, another thing to add to "my to do list", but who cares. There's a total of eleven type faces which are all complete, and three drawers full of logos, honeycomb bases for magnesium plates and some bits of lead type. Better get on with my restoration then I can use them!
