| Please note that ALL proceeds of equipment, supplies or printing sold by the Excelsior Press goes to support the continued existance of this museum print shop. Each month, we have to come up with $600 to pay the rent. For the past 22 years, the cost of the rent has come out of my own earnings. But now the shop must support itself in order to survive. We began by selling off some of the spare presses and tools from our collection, but response has been so positive that we are now seeking out other sources of the things you may need. We and hope to become a reliable resource to assist and encourage letterpress printing for this and future generations... |
WE HAVE FINALLY REALIZED that developing and maintaining a collection of old printing presses - and paying the rent, month after month for the past 20 years so far, takes both a lot of time and a fair amount of money. And, since we've got more stuff than we really need, and since the simple fact that you are here viewing this page suggests that you might want or need some of these treasures we've collected over the past 45 years or so, we have some really neat stuff (and maybe some junk) for sale.
We hate to part with any of it, actually, but really, how many midget-sized Hamilton Furniture Racks does one print shop need? We've got some spares. And we need to pay the rent. They're for sale.
And, we've got furniture - loads of it. "A lifetime supply", is how I describe it. But how many chases do I want to lock up at one time? And how often will I leave furniture in galley forms? A few fonts of furniture is all that we need. So we can sell some to you. As much as you need.
We've got type. We love type. We can't walk past a font of type without yearning to add it to our composing room. And surfing eBay drives us crazy! Plus people keep bringing us more stuff for the museum, so we're always adding more fonts to our collection. Often we get duplicates - or even faces we just don't use in our style of work. They're for sale, too.
Then there's 138 MORE fonts which we 'rescued' when Hobson Printing finally cleared out their composing room this past winter. I couldn't buy the type - but I insisted that the owner not dump it into that large barrel full of lead going to the scrap dealer. These fonts had to be saved. I made him let me take them and promised that I would sell it for him for twice what the scrap dealer would have paid. (Still not sure what that price really was. when I find out, I'll post it here.)
AND, now that Barry's brought down his Linotype, Interype, Ludlow & Colt, we have his spare quoins, furniture, etc. to add to the collection, and he's kindly agreed that we should sell it to cover expenses - and our newest expense is the $1200 it cost to move the line casters to The Excelsior Press.
And quoins! Boy, have we got quoins!
enough chatter. Here's the list: but remember - Most of this is used, and is available "Only while supplies last"

SMALL PRESS ACCESSORIES STARTER KITS -
$65-90/kit or
ala carte
(this section undergoing revision 12/02/09)
Many folks find or by a press by itself without the "ancillary items"
they will need to actually use their new press. To fill this need, we
have put together a number of 'starter kits' that will give you
everything you need to begin printing. But your needs may vary, so we
have broken this down into some catagories, with ala carte an option as
well.
For the common Kelsey
presses, for example, we have put together a kit which includes:
- Furniture & Reglet Starter Font
for your press ($35-50+9)
- Tympan set - for your press ($15-25)

enough
for
your
first
25
jobs
- gauge pins - box of 6 unused/old stock Megill Spring Tongue Gauge Pins ($13) or a box of 3 "used, but usable" Megill "Double-Grip" gauge pins ($28)
* Challenge quoin key may be replaced by a 'shooting stick', depending upon availability of used keys
* Kits up to 5x8 ship in Medium USPS Flat-rate box for $13.50 - insured.
OPTIONAL Press ITEMS -
- Chase lockup bars - eliminate the need for quoins on
smaller presses equipped with drilled chases ($9.00/set)
- Challenge Quoins - 3 2-piece sets Challenge Wedge Style Quoins & quoin key* ($9.75+9.25=$19.00)
- Wickersham Quoins
- Quoin reglet set - + 10 pieces each 6 & 12 point
25 pica reglet $4.00

many, many other colors ($13.50)
- Ink knife (also available at your local hardware store as a "putty knife") ($4.95)
- Ludlow slugs (Line

or
"slug"
of
"hot-metal"
type)

Ink Roller Bearers aka Roller Tracks -NEW! - Our roller bearers are made from new
hardwoods or recycled wood furniture pieces cut to fit precisely - type
high - .918" - on our .5-point precision Hammond Glider Trim Saw.
Bearers are then finished - for protection from ink stain and solvents
- with the same Paraffin Oil used by The Thompson Cabinet
Company when
they made the furniture they sold to the Kelsey Company and to print
shops througout the country for many years.

- Excelsior "Chase Base"
®- "replace your chase" with a hardwood Excelsior Chase-Base. Used
for printing from deep-etch (K-series) photo-polymer plates. Mounts in
your press just like
a chase - but does not require that you have a chase, furniture, quoins
or a quoin key - AND it gives you the largest image size possible for
your small press.
- Kit includes low-clearance unsmashable gauge
pins that will let you position your image anywhere on the base and
still do quick makeready and sheet alignment. $68.00 - 108.00

note: although these are an inexpensive alternative a well-known & popular photopolymer base, these are *not* machined metal, nor do they include the alignment grid. But plates mount easily and are easily aligned - AND users report excellent results when using our special flexible gauge pins.
Typesetting Starter Kit
Even if you do use photo polymer plates or photo-engravings now and again, nothing beats the satisfaction - and convenience - of setting your own hand type, adding a flourish or ornament or nice piece of rule here and there, adjusting the spacing with a 2pt lead here and there - and then printing as we did in the good old days of "hot metal". (Which, of course we still do daily at the Excelsior Press) Besides, when you set your own type, and make up your own forms, you not only carry on the old letterpress tradition - established by Gutenberg when he began casting moveable type around 1450, but you also have the option of getting an idea and putting it to paper within an hour or less in many cases. There's nothing more convenient than setting hand type for short text works.
Setting hand type is not as hard as it may seem. We typically teach folks the basics of typesetting and lockup in an hour or so. You can learn in class, or learn from a book, either way works. For over 100 years, the Kelsey Company taught folks around the world - in quite literally, every far-flung corner of the world - monks on mountain tops, missionaries in the jungle, boys and girls across the USA - to set type with the handy (and still available) little Kelsey Printer's Guide.
And, we have recently come upon an until quite recently unopened crate of brand new composing sticks - made in Germany about 50 years ago, but left in a crate that had not been opened in anyone's recent memory... These are economy sticks - not as spiffy as the most popular of all - the Rouse Composing Stick, but they sell for quite a bit less than the Rouse stick and will serve any typesetter quite well. We use them in our shop and find them to be perfectly adequate - sturdy and accurate and easy to use.
To set hand type - as every printer should, you will need a few basic items:
1) Type & spaces
2) A composing stick
3) leads & slugs
4) A type planing block
Other good items worth having:
1) Type cases - one for each font.
2) A printer's line gauge - marked off in picas
3) A composing stick holder - keeps it at an angle so nothing falls out of an unjustified line.
4) A lead & slug cutter - to cut leads to custom lengths as needed (tin snips can work in a pinch, too.)
5) Galley Trays - to hold type, leads, slugs, furniture, "live forms" recently, or about to be printed.
6) Rules & borders - to enhance your designs. These come as piece borders (type), lead rule & border or brass rule.
7) (more to add)
Of course, you will want some type cases to hold the type, but even if you use a few ice-cube trays to begin with, you can get started doing your own typesetting easily and at relatively little expense.
Now if you want to get a bit fancy, we also make a reproduction of ATF's old composing stick holder.

Other "starter kit" items you may want to purchase at your local hardware:

2) a one-quart can of odorless mineral spirits for general cleanup
3) a small bundle of cloth shop towels (or some old t-shirts)
4) a small putty knife to be used as an ink knife. Be sure the blade is flexible for mixing inks
5) a small adjustable wrench (Pilot) or large blade screwdriver (Kelsey & others) for adjusting the platen pressure
6) a tool for adjusting the paper gripper arms - a flat-tipped screw driver or an allen key, depending upon the gripper screws on your press.
7) an Exacto knife or some razor blades for general cutting while doing press make-ready.

First, an apology. This page began simply as a place to list some spare equipment we had for sale. But it has grown quite a bit since then and really should be replaced by a proper shopping cart. We are working on putting together a proper shopping cart to make things easier, but until then, please bear with us. We're doing the best we can with very limited resources.
For now, please use our standard contact form, but include in the comments field, your name, phone number, shipping address, the press you use and a list of the items you need. Please be sure to leave us your email as well for faster service.
We will respond by email with a link to your packing list. Once you approve the order, and we have it ready to ship, we will upgrade the packing list to an invoice with a PayPal "Pay Now" button that will transfer our information for your order to Paypal where you can make payment using your own Paypal account or a major credit card. Please note in your order if you would rather pay another way and we will try to accomodate your request.
We ship orders of 12 oz or less via USPS First Class Mail and generally use USPS Flat Rate boxes for heavier items.
We can make a carton or crate to accomodate anything we sell, but some orders will require special packing and shipping quotes.
Thanks, Alan
