All the little spaces in between
Hey all. I acquired 2 cabinets full of type, but with almost no spaces. Can anyone recommend a good source for all those little em’s, en’s, 3-em’s, 4-em’s and so on? Preferably on the east coast.

John Barrett of Letterpress Things in Chicopee MA sells it by weight. I don’t believe he ships, so you’d have to make the trip, but it would be well worth it. http://www.letterpressthings.com/
You could also check the Yellow Pages here on Briar Press for other suppliers.
NA Graphics sells it as well, but I think you have to buy by the pound and of course it would need to be shipped.

Give Don Black a call.

John B at Letterpress Things will ship, and he’ll also make up a point-size kit (some of each size spacer for that point size) for you!
Thanks so much for the info.
