Original Description:
For your consideration, this is a vintage Line-O-Scribe Model 1422 ( VHTF) manual card press that includes 750 type letters( some wood some metal ( non-ferrous-Lead(?)- see description below for type blocks available) the original slant top for placing the type trays ( measures at 54" X 27" X 27") ( there are 8) for ease of use, a cabinet to hold/store 4 trays, and the original plastic covers ( with a couple of holes) that  cover the press.The whole collection is pretty much free ...of rust ( you may find some here and there) and appears to be quite functional as a set. There are original manuals ( see picture) included.  The Model 1422 was intended for larger printing of retail cards and , of course, thias all preceded the advent of digital printing ( the original printing employee was laid off after computerization by digital proved far more efficient, boo!)Following is our summarization of the 750 sizes/fonts of the printing type:

We, at least at this time, are not interested in pieceing out this set, but it nev er hurts to ask. Money always talks, lol!!
A very complete set and VERY heavy so we will originally sell this with a local pickup only( we are 1/2 way between Detroit and Ann Arbor with easy freeway access to our address.
The winning bidder will pay within 24 hours of auction completion using Paypal only. Only available for local pickup unless you care to arrange all packaging and freight costs prior to our release  of this set. You will be welcome to review this prior to bidding if you request a time and date. We are here to serve you as best we can. This is a large and heavy set as listed( a little over 300 lbs we estimate), so if you buy it, please bring a vehicle that can handle the size and weight.
If you have any questions, please contact us prior tobidding and we will respond as soon as possible. With the 2 grandchildren we are raising, Summer gives us a lot more flexibility on timing, lol!!
Thank you for your interest.
NOTE: Another 34 numbers( larger font) and Symbols mwere just discovered in the warehouse and we are now in possession and will include them with this lot. There ais also, a 1949 ( dated) sign order pad, more spacer length( some in original paper wrapping and some other miscellaneous items. They are all included with this listing.The question was asked earlier if the roller was in good shape- we see no issues with the roller(s) , they are basically smooth. Thought we needed to add all of this , lol!!
