Vintage Printing Letterpress Rubber Block Cut. BACON 4 3/4 X 2  1/4. 2057

Measurements are the image size and NOT the overall plate size.

rubber plate (we believe from a flour or feed bag)

These rubber plates were used in for printing cloth and paper bags on rotary presses.  We have printed them by hand and at times, have mounted them on blocks to make them type high.  Most date from the 1950s through the late 1970s.

We will be listing about 200 over the next week.
