The Museum Store is Open!
Bill Whitley

John Barrett in talking to a potential customer

the Museum store

The Museum has set aside a room with surplus type, equipment, and supplies for sale, to benefit our ongoing activities, largely thanks to the tireless efforts of John Barrett, shown here talking with a potential customer. John has organized the Museum Store along the lines of his own store, (“Letterpress Things”) in Chicopee, Mass.

There is type in drawers and galleys, cases and racks; also furniture, spacing materials & slug cutters, ink, paper drills and cutters, and book presses (to name a few things). John has spent many long hours moving and organizing type and supplies, so it’s going to be easy to find what you’re looking for. (Yes, you get the benefit of John’s obsessive-compulsive tendencies!)

The self-service store is open whenever the Museum is open, pricing is very reasonable, and all sales benefit the Museum.
