AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An XXL lot composed of antique typographic characters from Italy, early 20th century.
Material: wood. The letters are loose; you can freely assemble the creation you want. Attention: there is no drawer or frame included, only typographic characters as shown in the exhaustive photos.
Very good condition with signs of wear commensurate with the material and period.
Various measurements range from 15 cm for the tallest and a thickness of about 2.3 cm, up to 3 cm in height for the smallest; widths vary.
It will be carefully packed and shipped by tracked mail.
The included shipping costs cover not only door-to-door courier delivery but also all materials such as cardboard, packing tape and any bubble wrap or paper, plus the time required for lot preparation, such as cleaning, arranging, and handling of the process.
Observe all the photos; they are an integral part of the description.
The letters have been cleaned and superficially brushed to remove ink residues from processing.
Cannot be shipped to the smaller European islands where you would not agree to subsequently cover the additional surcharge requested by couriers, using the internal Catawiki chat platform. This amount changes too often and depends on the location.
