HI! We’ve been a bit offline but we are BACK and will be heading to Minneapolis this week for the Shakespeare Association of America’s annual conference. We made new shwag and will be raffling off typecasting toolkits in these cool new bags!

Come visit 3Dhotbed at #Shax2023 on Friday between 11-1 in the Symphony Ballroom to learn more about teaching book history in 3D! We have a few typecasting teaching toolkits in these fancy new bags that need a new home! 3dhotbed.info/toolkit

Thanks #Shax2023 that was a blast! For the early birds who managed to snag one of the typecasting teaching toolkits we’d love your feedback/photos/suggestions! If you have a 3D dataset you think might augment the collection please let us know!
