The Type Archive (formerly the Type Museum) was a collection of artefacts representing the legacy of type founding in England, whose famous type foundries and composing systems supplied the world with type in over 300 languages.[1][2] The Archive was founded in 1992 by Susan Shaw in Stockwell, South London.[3][4] The Archive announced in mid-2022 that it would relinquish its building and return portions of its collections to other institutions.[5]
