I posted these photos a while back but thought I’d repost them for a little inspiration. I had bought this set of old metal type just to experiment with and had some fun photographing different arrangements. There’s something really cool about handling the solid pieces of metal type and looking at the unique wear on each letter from when they were used for printing. I don’t currently have a letterpress machine or any type of printing setup, but who knows maybe they will show up in a new design someday.
