Frem & woll written original any toy oun make thousands of copies on any paper, and each one will be perfect.
There is absolutely nothing to go out of ordor, and the apparatus is always ready for use. There is a mechanical device which allows the copy to be made in any position on the paper.
The pressure-roller is regulated by a simple lever, and the arrangement is so made that it is impossible for the operator to have difcalty with his work.
The printing cylinder is gearet so that one turn of the handle makes a copy.
Ausé important advantage ELLAMSB 19" peasonses is that the ink never dripe and runs all over the Duplicator as on other Machines,
The ink never dries on the rollars or pads, and copies can be made on nay kind of papar. Moreover, this ink does not stain the hands in any way.
There is no peculiar or complicated fastening of the stencil-sheet to the Duplicator. The ELLAMS'" Q 19 Duplicator is so absolutely simple that it requires uo experience whatever to preduge perfect copies from it-there is no escalating or unscrewing of
