The Motherlode

The gods of ebay-bargains have finally smiled upon us! We have taken delivery of a truckload full of random old type. Hurrrah!

Interestingly, these are not letters, numbers or punctuation, but the most startlingly varied selection of pictoral type, logos etc. It's a fascinating collection. Some of it I think we'll be hard pressed to find a use for, but the best part of it is just flippin' awesome.

I reckon there's a few hundred pieces in total. Most of it is packed in a box at the mo, in layers, so hard to show you the scale of it, but here's a taster, with close-ups of some of the coolest pieces:
