Hoffman platen press
Hello Everyone!
I have just acquired a Hoffman table top platen press and I was wondering what kind information anyone has on it. I have been unable to find it on Briar press and online. It is is great shape except for the fact that I need to find rollers. I hope someone out their can familiarize me!
Thanks so much,
Mother Hen
The name doesn’t ring any bells with me, or apparently any of the 75 other people that have viewed your posting so far.
Can you post a picture? That might help considerably in getting the ball rolling for you.
The only reference I found was to p. 22 of Elizabeth Harris’s “Printing Presses in the Graphic Arts Collection”: a table-top “Hat Tip Press” made by Hoffman Type and Engraving. It’ll be interesting to see what this one looks like!
