Rubber stamps: 120+ typewriter logos and nameplates

enliven your correspondence with the wonders of the rubber stamp!


600dpi laser carving means quality you can't see with your naked eye!



Incidentally, the 120dpi scans I make for my blog can't show how good these look (and my somewhat dry stamp pad doesn't help, either). This is at 300 dpi using cheap copy paper.





I've affixed a lot of mine to pieces of cardboard because I'm cheap and I want to have a lot of them. XD If you aren't getting very many stamps, it's definitely worth getting the wooden blocks.

Why so many SM3s?

My favorite dealer decal ever! And positioned nicely, too. On the back so I only have to look at it if I want to. This spent its whole life in Long Beach until it reached me.



I should say that my comment about italic typefaces isn't completely correct. Italic, as handwriting, was first used to save space. It continued that in it's typeface form until it became used for emphasis only. Also, the other obvious reason I have so many--because they're amazing to use!
