The seller has several other interesting lots, including more type. Check their OTHER ITEMS* on eBay.

Seller's description:

Absolutely gorgeous type! 24 pt. and plenty of it. It has been fonted up a bit out of order but its all there.

From McGrew:

"LIBERTY was designed for ATF by Willard T. Sniffin in 1927, presumably to counter the importation of Bernhard Cursive, which it greatly resembles... it is a delicately handsome, unconnected script, with very small lowercase and very tall ascenders."  Liberty, ATF 511

Will ship on a steel galley for easy storage.
