Note: I spend time each month at the foundry, but never really know when or for how long. If you need fonts right away, please email me first before you pay. You should buy before the fonts sell out, but wait on payment until you hear from me. Thanks very much.
ID: This is NEW metal printing type for letterpress printing or for hot-stamping. The font is ATF's 24pt Bradley Combination Ornaments. There are 11 different ornaments in this font. Five 6 in. lines, 90 pieces of 24pt. types. Some are set at a 45% angle, others are in pairs; having a right and left design. If you can, buy two fonts, as this will greatly increase the utility of each design. Excellent for borders, headpieces, tailpieces, initials blocks and tint grounds. This is a great deal.
Cast at the Dale Guild Tpfy.. on a Barth foundry caster with primary metals. These are the hardest printing types you can buy. They are hard enough for hot-stamping.
CONDITION: NEW, uninked. Please keep in mind that this is a rough galley proof, dust in the ink and lint on the types in pics. You will get a new uninked font, as always.
PAYMENT: You can use the payment link in the automated email if you prefer PayPal. M/O's, Cashier's checks, or personal checks are welcomed with 7 day wait. Payment to be recd. within 10 days.
Internatioanl buyers must use PayPal.
SHIPPING/Handling: Your zip will determine postage. All packages are sent Priority Mail unless otherwise requested, with Delivery Confirmation at my cost. I use Flat-rate boxes whenever it saves you money. I take much care in fonting and packing to make sure you receive you type in the condition it left my shop. Insurance is optional, but advised. Will combine metal type auctions to save on shipping. but the most you pay for one or five, is $10.95.
As of Dec., '07, I have to start charging $1.00 packing fee as I have run out of recycled bubble-wrap & peanuts, and good tape is not cheap. Thanks for your understanding.
Re: International Shipping
Types are best sent via Global Priority Flat-rate Air Mail. They will have a special box that will carry up to 20pounds for $26.00 to Canada, all other countries @ $42.50. This means you can ship up to five fonts for this cost.
INFO: I have the priviledge of handling the sales of the types cast at the Dale Guild Tpfy, in Howell NJ. The propietor and I spend about 2 weeks per month casting type and fonting the same. Please visit www.daleguild.com to view other pics of many of the types you see listed here in my ebay store, and a whole lot more. We invite your requests for types not presently available. We have been casting bookfonts this past year, and sometimes we have the time to cast some other types and put fonts together. All types are cast on ATF Barth casting machines, which produce true foundry types, not monotypes. See my "me" page for further info.
I also sell old and new types, presses and other letterpress things from my own letterpress shop . In addition, I sell some very nice items for a few good retired friends that are better acquainted with movable type than computers. Please check my EBAY STORE for more fonts, early printed leaves and antiquarian books.
I welcome your questions. Larger pics on request. Please bookmark my seller's list, as I will be listing many rare fonts, initials, ornaments and borders in the months to come (you can read my "Me" page for more info).Thanks for looking.
