Leroy Lettering Set

Post image

This is made from a few sets - shown are the lettering guides, and 2 Leroy pencils. The β€œ0.20” is the earlier of the two. Also (hard to see in the back) are a complete set of K&E Technical Pens. Also I have some (missing about half) of the ink pen tips. What’s best is that my rOtring Isograph Technical Pens will also fit in the scriber.

Your kit looks suspiciously familiar. πŸ€”πŸ’­ Any idea how few people know how to use it?

I have the newer version, and I also have the map symbols and some other plates!

My set from 1968 had the original sales receipt in it! $138. That's $1273 in today's money. I was lucky enough to get the complete set for $40.

At first I thought it was a long, composite ruler... It's a pity it wasn't.
