Seller's description:

"Tuscan Floral was recut by Carroll from a face by Conner. It originated with H.W. Caslon in 1854. The design differs in various sizes."*

This is a small, yet stunning and delicate face. Pinmark present though difficult to identify any text inside. It is complete with uppers, numbers, and punctuation.

This particular set came directly from the basement of Dave Churchman, APA 308, and you may have seen this exact face in the background of the movie "Pressing On".
