Wanted:Galley Trays & Composing Stick(s)

Hello! We just recently picked up a restored Showcard Model B Special, and now I’m on the hunt for some galley trays to use with it. I also have been trying to find the best places to purchase composing sticks (several of a variety of sizes would be nice). 

Does anyone have some for sale or can anyone point me in a good direction? 

Hello,

Give Paul a shout at the Platen Press Museum here in Illinois (just google his site and you’ll find his email). I know he’s got a ton of galleys and a handful of composing sticks, it’s just a matter of what size and quantity you need, and if he’s got something handy at the moment. His prices are also very fair.

Hope that helps!
Jen

Thanks, Jen! I’ll totally do that this week. 🙂
