Maybe it's just me, but these old blocks inspire me. I don't know what they inspire me to do beyond just look at them, but that's okay for now.
I just stuck this block in my scanner. If anybody is interested, I can scan a block letter for them. I have the whole alphabet and all the numbers.
Here's an example of what the numbers look like. I have no cluue why I like these things so much. It may be that something is desperately wrong with my childhood.
