Description

MM Kelton Press
Engraving Intaglio Printing Press
This press is from Tin Pan Alley, NYC
Incredibly rare press.
Includes counter weight.
Includes steel plates (4), felts and other parts.
Will include a box of engraving type/punches (in wood bases) and engraving strips (soft lead?)
Includes 2 rollers with custom wood cases.
One side of the bottom cylinder needs a repair. I have the part that needs to be re-set.
I can send more pictures and info about this.
The bed width is 12" and the print depth is maybe 14"?
The bed itself is 34", but based on what I've read and the diameter of the cylinder.
Dimensions:
34” deep
25” width
54” tall
Handles
axel center to handle end (1) 32”
handle end to handle end 63”
The repair:
With the bottom cylinder axel, where the axel rests on one side, there is a two piece plate that the axel fits in between and this needs to be reset.
I have the part, if you look in the pictures at the top piece of wood, feed board surface he had made, the U shape piece of steel is there, and if you look at the axel area in the close ups, you can see the bottom U shape piece is installed, and the other one needs to be set back into place.
