Label TextThis Gestetner lettering stencil came from St. James-Westminster Church. Lettering stencils could be used to reproduce text on church publications, allowing for a great deal of customization of fonts and text types. These accessories were used for reproducing newsletters and notices without having to rely on an outside printer. Gestetner duplicating and stencil products were popular with churches, schools, organizations, and offices. They had an office in London at 465 Richmond Street, now Talbot Centre, in the 1960's. The company had a wide range of products including ink rollers, stencil paper, stamps, and tracing tools.
