Kingsley Type Set in Boxes


 While on vacation two weeks ago, we picked up this wonderful box of Hot Foil type sets.
They all come in boxes with hinged lids, except top one has no lid.


 Here is a close up of the top box...


 Each box has a different font in it, and the fonts are pictured on the front of the box.


 On the lid of each box is the Kingsley Machine Co., Hollywood, Calif.
Some in ovals, some in rectangles, (like below.)
Most boxes have complete sets of type in them,
or at least some of each letter.




Here are the instructions, on inside of lids each box lid.

and here is a close up of type set holders, and how to place type.
Did I get any type set holders???
or the rest of it??
No, silly me.
But we may go back for some....
 (They also had parts of the original print machine,
but way out of our price range....)

Here is a close up of the little 'bins' of type.

entire unit is about 10x8x8"
individual drawers are approx 8x2"
(forgot measurements, sorry)

  Thanks for coming by
