A fantastic find. I took a look at the same location some 40 years ago and gave up in exasperation. Completely blown away by your dedication and persistence - I tip my typographic hat to you.

I love this type and have purchased a license. It just speaks to me at a level I can’t quite describe. I did do something that could be seen as heresy and added a more modern usable question mark to my copy (apologies for that).
Thank you for all the work you put in, it is greatly appreciated.

Great job, Tom Beal.

Amazing story, great work Robert Green. You sound so defeated at the end, I hope it isn't that bad!

Will George Do don't I! It's editing - the question was something like, "so are you going to keep looking for more?" I get asked this question a lot (& it came somewhere during the middle of the day). Many thanks for your kind remarks though Will .
