Printle: A Printing Word Game from Metal Type

The following is a message on the http://www.briarpress.org/user/58481 site.  I don't have Jared W's email contact Please see http://www.briarpress.org/ for access.

Hi all!!

I know this isn't the right place to post this but I wanted to make sure it received attention as it is time critical.

It has been an age since I've posted and a very old Contact of mine remembered a conversation I had with him in 2014. He manages a print shop in Winnipeg Canada and told me that by the end of next week 5/27 they are scrapping this old machine as they don't have the space for it anymore. He is just asking about $200.00 for it.

Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll get you his information. Hate to see this scrapped. Attached is an image I took in 2014 of the machine.

Thank you for the consideration,
Jared

Good news for this machine. According to the Briar Press website, the machine has been saved and will soon be on display in Winnipeg.
