18+ trays of type and 2 racks

** type sale pending, press still available for potential lease**

I have 18+ trays of lead type in California cases, and 2 large racks currently stored in our garage. We’re listing the house for sale at the end of the month, and would like to have these gone. I mostly use plates with my press, the type came with it and is leftover from when the press was used for the Elkhart IN newspaper:

Sans Medium 8 pt, Kelsey 98-8
Spartan Medium Series 680 8 pt
Bankers Roman Shaded 12.1 pt, 12.2 pt, 18 pt
Bernard Modern Bold 670 14 pt
Bernard Modern Bold 670 18 pt
Stymie Bold 30 pt
Stymie Bold 36 pt
Stymie Bold 40 pt
Stymie Bold 48 pt
Stymie Bold 60 pt
Stymie Italic 24 pt
Stymie Italic 30 pt
Stymie Italic 36 pt
Stymie Italic 48 pt
Stymie Italic 60 pt

Plus a coffee can of mixed type. Make offer on one or all.

Also would be interested in a long term lease of type (and possibly press too, if you are local to Zeeland/Grand Rapids area) to an instructor or institution. Do not want to sell press outright, but don’t use it much and would love to see it put to good use in a student environment as long as I can have time on it occasionally. Press is a 1922 C&P 10x15 new style, non-motorized.
