I also have some of these lovely letterpress blogs and have used them often for collages and drawings.<br /><br />But my most treasured collections are that of (1) feathers and (2) horn cups....you know, the antique ones that people drank beer from. I just adore them! Natural objects with a gorgeous patina, feel and shape.<br /><br />Enjoying your gentle blog.<br /><br />Ciao<br /><br />RobynParis Rendez-vous and Beyondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08168281341920168771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-30897262819522845722013-03-04T18:45:05.378-05:002013-03-04T18:45:05.378-05:00I concur with Tina... will you find the letterpres...I concur with Tina... will you find the letterpress and let us all order stationary from you??

I've always been hoping to come across an old letterpress.... and letters. I am actually procrastinating right now instead of finishing my post on something I love to collect "hotel ware". In fact I have been writing about all of the things I collected during my 6 month stay in France. Please stop by the market http://www.splendidmarket.com to read all about it. Okay, now I need to stop the procrastination so you'll be able to read the post!!<br />Splendid Markethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16611781081628569516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-42999532337668063192013-03-04T10:41:40.277-05:002013-03-04T10:41:40.277-05:00Good morning Elizabeth - What a great find!

Oh yes!<br /><br />Well my dear, these are fabulous finds. Preservation of the old ways is a good thing. Keep them, and think about the possibilities they once held and printed. I collect crowns, and have kept my collection of other things more now in my MEMORY in order to write. ENJOY YOUR DAY!
