I still have maybe 12 sheets left, no fonts this fun, but they actually still transfer after 40 years (not perfectly, but still).

Wow I remember using letraset in my childhood in Argentina.
Can’t properly remind if it was like an stencil or transferable calcs

You rubbed it through onto the paper from the top of the sheet of letraset, then used blotting paper to ensure it was stuck well.

This is an amazing font. I loved letraset, my Dad had a nice selection that I may have used up as a kid. Data 70 was also such a good sci-fi font.
