Subject: Inquiry about press leading
Hello,
I am an MIT student with access to a letterpress, but I don't have
the tools to easily make leading in the appropriate sizes.
Given that you offer print services at-cost and presumably have the
appropriate tools, I was wondering if you would be willing to sell
some pieces of leading. The press I have can use leading of 10 pica
and 18 pica lengths. I would be interested in 8-10 pieces of each,
probably in 2pt width.
Let me know if I could arrange to buy some leading from you.
Many thanks,
Erik Stayton
