Vintage Printer "Letter Press" Blocks

 
Still adding things to
my ever growing list of
vintage finds for
my shop this week.
 
When does the week
officially end?
Because I might not
get to it by tomorrow night!
(See update below!)
 
After all, isn't a lovely
photo display of my
finds just as important?
 
Of course!
 
See below!
(Thank goodness for Pic Monkey)
 
 
Found some old books
of interest:
Canterbury Tales
Chaplian of the Fleet
Count of Monte Cristo
(In French)
 
 
And an old, large glass frog.


Plus, vintage letter press blocks
used by a local printer or
 
newspaper company.
Capital letters, lower case letters,
numbers and ampersands, etc.
Is that how you spell ampersand?


Anyway, don't forget the
other cool stuff
I shared yesterday...
vintage petite suitcase,
high heeled shoe forms,
and cobalt apothecary
bottles!
 
Will be adding anything
else I find this weekend
after we make a trip
to our antique booth...

You have alot of amazing stuff in your shop. Saw something that I might want to order for my basement bathroom. It's not quite completed and I need to see what I already have, but I loved the talcom. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
