   Two old Printer’s Instruction Books for anyone wanting to cast “stereos”; solid metal dies called “cuts” for illustrations in the old black art of Letterpress Printing.  The larger one is a  1926 issue, put out by Western Newspaper Union, covering the ELECTRICASTER, a smaller machine than the Hammond EasyKaster.  This one uses molten type metal dipped from a Linotype pot and poured with a ladle.    The Hammond Book covers several of their machines associated with stereo casting, melting, and cutting, with instructions of each of their machines, but no step-by-step pictures.    Both books are filthy dirty from being used actively in old print shops; the pages are loose from the staples in the Electricaster book.  If you’re buying these to use and not just to look at, it’s all there  — invaluable information for the novice caster, and I will throw in 2 more copied sheets from a larger, more complete Hammond EasyKaster book, which will give you just about all the information you’ll need.  I did own an EasyKaster for several years, and was able to learn enough that I now have galleys full of “cuts” that I made with it.
