boo! i did that site for them 3 years ago to help the cause...
It's a brilliant place, The Type Museum - the warehouse it's in used to be the old Elephants' Sleeping Quarters in victorian london - that where elephants would sleep when there was a circus on!
The guy running it was a real eccentric, kinda hard to deal with if you know what i mean but i guess thats the kind of person who would have the passion to buy up old monotype matrixes and clean them all out, when we were looking around there was an entire warehouse just FULL of monotype, mountains of matrixes at all point sizes that needed to be hand sorted.
Damn what a tragedy.
