Printing treasure troves…
Near St Pancras?
Just wondering if anyone knows of any, as my plans for the day got cancelled when I was half way to London and I can’t spend the whole day at the BL.
I have a travelcard and a pretty good sense of direction.
Off to do some Googling now, but thought I’d shout out here first.
Thanks in advance :)

Down in darkest Kent, (The Garden of England etc) JUST POSSIBLY, remote but still possible? there may be a long forgotten hoard of of Letterpress Print equipment, possibly many tons?? … . A possible deal might be, if you had time and did the leg work, and should prove fruitfull, (BIG IF of course) and there was something/anything of use to Yourself, I/We *local rent a mob* provide the transport, as long as I/We obtain the Monotype Equipment, … . No more details on line, too much indigenous Monotype equipment is disappearing.? Admittedly very remote, but these situations still surface!!! … As witness your recent fortunate deals.
Wait, you can’t spend the whole day in the British Library? Gods, I could spend days in there!
As to the question at hand, will St. Bride Library be open the day you’re planning to be in London?

Mick - sounds an elusive mix of intriguing and fun. I am always up for projects, plans and leg work. Striking up deals a speciality. :)
Mephits thankyou, a good idea that one!
