    het ding waar de letterkast op stond heet bok. Uit de indeling komt ook de term 'onderkast' en 'bovenkast' vandaan.

    Voor meer informatie over het loodzetten moet u zeker een bezoek brengen aan het drukkerij museum in Meppel (Overijssel) www.drukkerijmuseum-meppel.nl/ De lege letterbakken zijn ook terug te vinden in menig Nederlandse huishoudens of gezinnen. Niet gevuld met loden letters, maar met beeldjes en prullaria.
