67 Harrison Label - Typing
Thought I would post my attempt to recreate the typed code no. on the foil Harrison label. I think it came out pretty good. I purchased an old IBM Selectric Typewriter and used the DELEGATE 10 font ball. That is FONT size 10. For an IBM, the smaller the number, the larger the font size (ie:ten letters per inch versus 12). I believe the font size is almost dead on, I am not convinced that the actual FONT is the correct one used as some of the numbers look a bit different, but it was the best I could find. I lined up the label and then hit each number six times using a regular ribbon in the typewriter. So, hit number, backspace, hit number, backspace and repeat five times and then start with the next letter. Remember NOT to backspace after the last hit or you will over strike the last number.
So,
1. IBM Selectric I or II typewriter ($20.00 shipped on Ebay)
2. Pack of six font balls on Ebay ($15.00)
3. Use DELEGATE 10
4. Hit each number 6 times.
