Letraset heaven

 Who ever really knows how things come about? How this leads to that and then...? 

And so it is with this letraset find.

I was reading about letraset which made me smile and remember how much fun it was.  I recalled I had some in the studio a friend had gifted me; and also that I had tried to purchase some modern equivalents recently.

I then went off on a google and found some for sale in Australia.  I really liked the used look it and lo and behold I was able to buy it and send it home. 

Isn't it gorgeous? What a stash!

So many lovelies.

As I look t it, I wonder which words have been printed using it? All the Cs and Ps are gone...

Some nice variations on the b and the g and some lovely ligatures - that ct is gorgeous!

I feel as if I am reading absences.

I quite like the tail of the R here; and that fractured T. And the way that part of one R is already detaching itself.

Lots of little ones too!

And this font reminds me of Hobo?

Bu this I really love - the marks left behind by rubbing off the letters. This is exactly what mine used to look like as a kid. What I would have called a blue biro rubbing it off!

I lie in bed at night dreaming of what these can become... so exciting!
