To make way for Herbie, our new guillotine ( we are yet to introduce you to it, maybe next week - we will be looking for naming suggestions) and all our new studio shelving and furniture we have had to have a big clean up of all our gorgeous old letterpress goods we have collected over the years.
As a result of them collecting dust and feeling very unloved we have decided to have an ebay sell off and find lots of our old vintage type, type trays and letterpress composing equipment new homes. It will be sad to see them go, but we do hope they can find new owners where they will get much more love and attention.
If your interested you can find our listings on our ebay shop here. The items are available for local pick up from our studio here in Scarborough, Brisbane, or we can post domestically or internationally as well.
Hmmm.. I think a guillotine calls for a French name. Hyphenated names are popular. I am thinking Jean-Claude.
ReplyDeleteJean-Claude is good! How about Marie... As in Marie Antoinette? Or is that too macabre...
ReplyDeleteOooh Alischa. And you think YOU are being teased.
ReplyDeleteWhy, oh why would you wave these beautiful things under our noses?
Just a question... what are the little print blocks made of? Do you think they'd stand up to, say, a jeweller hitting them with a hammer? Or is it sacrilege to even suggest it?
i have been wanting a type case for a looong time, going to the auction now, although i am probably too late.
