Wonderful mix of very old wood type letters. Most of the letters are coming from a french letterpress shop at Paris. The biggest letters have a height of 8.86 inch. No complete type set has been destroyed for creating this exceptional alphabet. As the characters have had a working life and were used for many, many years, there are signs of wear, scratches, etc. Please check also our other auctions, we have some more wood type sets, also complete sets, for sale.
