Set of letterpress wood type characters. A lovely set of wooden printing characters. The characters are from France and we think, they should date from around 1900. We have counted 387 pieces, we hope, that we did not make any mistake on counting, but you will see, what you get on the close-up photos. Each character measures 22 mm: 0.87 inch and 28 mm: 1.10 inch for those with descenders. We have removed some dust, but did no full cleaning. Woodtype #183 As you will see on the pics it is a very old set and we think, that would make a nice addition to every collection and also for a museum. Please be sure, that a carefull packaging will be done for the characters, so nothing will hurt the characters on transport. Please check also our other auctions, we have some more characters for sale, as we a parting from some printing blocks of our collection.
