I just posted about the F from that set this morning (http://end-grain.net/?p=1181). I could not find a stamp on any of the A's, so maybe it is the Hamilton cut. Thanks for the info, David.

You should double check the cap A's to see if it has Page's patent stamp on the shoulder, if it is missing that indication, it was most likely produced by Hamilton after they acquired Page's wood type company in 1891. Welcome back from your trip, and congrats on your new types.
