Typecase questions
I happened to come across a typecase loaded with Bernhard Fashion sorts, but I can’t ID the type of typecase. It has 15 very small compartments on each side of a divider across the back. Any ideas?
I paid $10 for it, and I’m thinking about going back and getting the remaining three typecases...each has different sorts. (Was this actually a good deal?)
Thanks!

rss,
Type is sold by the pound. 1lb of new type costs more than $10.
If the type is unusable the scrap factor comes to bare. Type cases are not included in the equation, They have their own value. I think you are safe, and $10. is nothing-take the risk.
I was a typefounder.
