Day 6 Giveaway: Tags & Type
Filed under Cat's Away... 2010, Giveaways, Sale
Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. But you can try searching on the same names (as links below) on the new site.
Today’s Giveaway came together fairly easily once I’d gotten all the components here (which took far longer than I’m willing to admit). That will make more sense when you see how tightly things below fit together.
Note: all the indented items are included in the Giveaway. There are some additional (related) things just put on sale that are not in the Giveaway (down at the bottom of this page).
Also note: there is no runner-up for today’s Giveaway.

Love the type keys…how vintage great is that? Thanks for the chance to win. Hugs, Lori
Ha..I remember most of the vintage stuff. I suppose that makes me “vintage” too?
Happy New Year to everyone!
I love vintage because as Rett said in her post, I’m becoming rather vintage myself.
More fun stuff! yippe
thanks so much for the fun and anticipation of these giveaways! I love the way you’ve assembled the collections.

Thanks for the opportunity to win such fabulous prizes.
Happy New Year to you.
must…have…this…collection.
If nothing else, to prove to spoiled generation that we had ONE FONT – and were proud of it!
Pick me, please!
Neat stuff! Typewriters seem to be big this year, should be interesting to see all the ideas folks come up with for them.
Lovely stuff! Count me in, please.
I love all of the typewriter imagery! Very cool!

I thought nothing could pass the steampunk give away, but this is it. I remember the pay phones on the upper left of the sheet above. Anywhere we went without our parents, we were given a nickle to use the pay phone if needed. Really doesn’t seem that long ago. Great blast from the past. Please include my name in the give away.
This giveaway is so generous. Love all your stuff and would love to end the year with a gift 🙂
What a great collection! I LOVE LOVE LOVE all of it! Thanks for a chance to win! Anne, yourmainestamper

These goodies are so cute! My first job in the corporate world was as a typist – before computers. Good thing I didn’t have to type on one of those old-fashioned machines!
Thanks for another great giveaway. I love this one too. I love them all.
Good luck to all.

Old journalist here, before the advent of computers. I love type! It would be inconsiderate of me to plead with the random number generator to win again, but… each day the prizes get better and better!
