These antique printing plates are sold AS IS - no returns or exchanges. All items in this store are used and most likely dirty with ink and print shop dust on them, if I notice any flaws or crushed sections I will note it in the description or ask me if you notice something that you want clarified. I am a letterpress printmaker so if you have questions please ask.

Shipping
If you want to order multiple items it is sometimes best to contact me - I prefer to ship several items in small flat rate boxes because of the weight of some of these pieces and can fit as many as will go for 1 rate.

International
Sorry but I cannot ship any packages overseas at this time.
