This is an old black cast iron stamp... this one just so happens to have an address:  says R.H. Duff, 27 Eliot Pl, Jamaica Plain, Mass.....I would imagine this embossed address could be interchanged with something else....I know that these types of stamps were also used for notary seals....just push down on the lever (make sure to have a piece of paper in it) and it will emboss that address....works great....all cast iron, measures 4 1/2 inches long; stands 8 inches tall including when the handle is up and just as it is pictured

I am an antique junkie.  I do a lot of traveling attending local auctions and estate sales, particulary in my home state and while I try to give as best description as possible when listing items, bear in mind I am not an expert.  That what you see is how it is presented to me. I do not go out of my way to clean up the items; I leave that up to you.  I do no accept returns unless something is grossly misrepresented, so please view all pictures and ask questions.  I will work with you to obtain a mutually agreeable resolution should something like that occur.

I ship worldwide and combine shipping as well.  I will ship the same day if you pay for your item before 3:00 PM CDT.  Positive feedback will be given the same day in return.  I certainly appreciate your business and keep me in mind for future treasures.  All delicate items will be bubblewrapped and insured for your protection.  If you have any questions, please contact me.
