When I was a kid there were kits with small alphabet rubber stamps that fit into a wooden hand-held stamper. Tweezers were used in placement of the stamps. Anyone know what the offical name of these kits are so I can do a search to purchase, or else know where they can be purchased?
Thanks, Ken
While I don't recall any specific terminology, I've found an updated version of these very kits in Staples, sold under the label "Stockwell Self-inking Printing Kit". Everything works as you describe, but the parts are plastic rather than wood.
A quick Google shows a lot of these on eBay.
Pat,
Thanks for the info. I'm much more interested in a modern set than vintage. I've a project in mind and cheaper is better.
