19th-century Chandler & Price platen press, circa 1880s. This press spins freely and retains its original character. Also included is the mechanical counter that mounts to the arm, a rare accessory for presses of this age.
This is an excellent candidate for a full restoration, a working shop setup, or as a centerpiece for historical display. C&P presses from this era are sought after for their craftsmanship, durability, and print quality.
