Description:
(From the collection's website)

The collection consists of about 1000 typographical clichés used in the scientific publications of the Museu Nacional de História Natural.

The collection could have significant value if carefully studied and could be used for research in the fields of the science history and could have an important historical value, being part of the history of the Museum.

The collection is not catalogued and is stored in the attic of the museum.
