I got an old typeface drawer from work

I have another one there. Not sure what I am gonna do with them yet, but they were too beautiful to pass up.

Maybe make shelves for them? A table? A fold-down wall desk? Not sure

@Catzgano not sure!! I think it's one of the older ones though because it's fully wood. Some of them had a masonite base

@caccoon I’ll ask my step dad he’s into antiques but my mom made him stop buying them so he didn’t stop just got a storage unit 😂

@Catzgano he said when type was set by hand so 1920 or earlier

@Catzgano yeah, it's definitely over 100 years old I'd say! We have some antique presses and they are incredible.

@Catzgano he said ppl hang them on wall and put things in the openings.

@Catzgano yeah, I was thinking I could use it as a shelf, but we'll see!!
