[picture in document]
We recently found these eight stereotypes of a simple receipt form dating from the 1950's. We also found the matrix from which they were [probably] cast.
Where the stereos have a section cut out, the matrix has the name of the secretary of the ANA organisation. It seems that that person's details were cut out of each block. The name of the new secretary would then have been inserted with Linotype settings.
