This U.S. typecase configuration matches the Wells Two Fount Job case of American Type Founders: Desk Book of Type and Printing Materials (1900) and American Line Type Book (1906), and Barnhardt Bros & Spindler: Book of Type Specimens No.9 (1907) and the Wells Job (Hamilton model 2765) of Hamilton Manufacturing Co: Modern Printing Office Furniture, Catalog 15 (1922), and American Type Founders: Catalogue (1923), and Hamilton Manufacturing Co: Printing Plant Equipment, Type Storage Section, Catalog 16 (c1932), and Thompson Cabinet Co: Equipment for Printing Plants Catalog 47 (c1949), and American Printing Equipment & Supply Co: Catalog (1983 and 1987). It is also called a Hamilton Double Cap by Polk: The Practice of Printing (rev ed 1964). The case holds two founts of caps and figures, and the cap boxes are one third larger than the normal News Cap case. A suitable lay is ATF's Wells Job or Polk's similar Double Cap lay. The typecase is 323/16 x 165/8 inches. In the diagram, the boxes in the top row should all be the same size.
