which looks like old lead type setting ?
Once I saw such a (True Type ?)-font on a hompage from some foundry - but I've forgotten where.

Be nice to see an example.

Older "lead type" serif faces would be like Goudy Old Style, any Caslon, Garamond, Cheltenham.... long list...

What I'm looking for is a type style (an alphabet) where the caracters look like lead-printing types, e.g. they are laterally reversed, like reading the matter in the composing stick.

@Bent: Depending on how you hold the composing stick, you mean right to left, mirrored or left to right flipped?

Have fun and ... be nice to the cats
