Dale Guild Type Foundry
[Theo Rehak]
Run by Theo Rehak from Howell, NJ: The Dale Guild Type Foundry has been cutting and casting true foundry-cast types, ornaments, borders and initials since 1993. We use foundry alloy made from virgin metals in Barth foundry casters obtained from American Type Founders Co. at their closing. All 16 machines along with two Benton Engraving Machines have been rebuilt and are meticulously maintained. We cast types from 6-24 points, and 72 point initials. We strive to maintain ATF's standards of production in our artwork, engraving and casting. We have made a serious attempt at reproducing Johann Gutenberg's B-42 types. In the summer& fall 2001, we will be cutting&casting Frederick Warde's original ARRIGHI, with the Vicenza variant characters. Various accented letters are also being cut. We have already cut and cast the seldom seen suite of ornaments designed by Bruce Rogers for the Arrighi font. Rehak was trained at ATF and purchased a portion of ATF when it went bankrupt in 1993. |
