rpHIS STAMPING PRESS has been produced to meet the very general objection to
_L the common Endorsing Stamps, &c, with which Fluid Ink is used, where much
inconvenience is caused by the drying or caking of the Ink, which renders the production
of a correct and satisfactory impression very uncertain. This objection is entirely
obviated in this Press, by the substitution of a Chemically Prepared Material, for the
ordinary Printing Inks. This
NEW ENDORSING PRESS
Is a Self-acting Apparatus, adapted for the Desk, Counter, or "Writing-table ; it is very
portable, and easily worked by the hand — the Stamping action of the Machine brings
continually a fresh supply of Colouring Matter to the Stamp or Type, so that there is
no interval of time wasted between the successive impressions, and the Press is always
ready for use.
Among the many purposes to which this Press is eminently adapted may he men-
tioned, the Endorsing of Cheques, &c, the Stamping of Frices Current, Share Lists,
Bills of Lading, Accounts, Prescription Wrappers, Cards, Letters, Books, &c.
PRICES OF PRESSES FROM 1£ TO 2i GUINEAS.
Stamps to use in the above, Engraved in various styles, from 3d. per Letter.
