Check Ebay, I've bought some recently.

dry transfer lettering as a substitute for letterpress?

is any of the dry transfer still viable? i have about 300 sheets, and it's all SO DRY it's brittle and cracks when i mess with it.
cost me hundreds of $, though, and i can't bring myself to throw it away, just like the Color-Aid paper i bought 25 years ago...

Letraset.com have a very limited selection available. They still sell these in my local graphics supply shop.

I came across my stash when I was making room for a new printer -- I've used it for a couple of things since and it works fine.

ROFL! I've got a small one around somewhere from a colour theory class I taught 15 years or so ago, should give it to a friend who does collages....

It was so dang expensive, I know what you mean, Chuck. :-)
