    Thanks for the memory – Its were my career started. Haven’t seen type mark up for photosetting and letterpress in years.
    I remember having to buying headline photosetting by the character. CS10 board, rotring pens, Cow Gum. I think the last can of Spray mount has lasted me 8 years! Good post. :-)

      CS10 board. I still have some upstairs in the cupboard. And I still use Rotring pens! But I get misty eyed when you put them all together! Ahh…happy days!
