So this is 576 pieces of Kennerley Bold 14 point foundry type (plus quads). It takes about 45 minutes to put together and is smaller than a 3x5 card. I finally figured out how to do two at once, but you have to do them backwards, and the letters are reversed. I put in a couple photos that I flipped showing how they SHOULD look when used to print something. But that’s just for example, I have to do them mirror of each other and one is upside down too. These are driving me crazy. This sells for about $55 but we have smaller and bigger sets. I’m sort of putting them together however they fit on a card, I’m generally doing two or four of each set. I alternate how many letters depending on how many I have more of. I’m hoping to switch to a different font soon. A bigger font!!! 🙃 All sets are listed in our eBay store!!!
