Larger copper-on-wood printers ink block of an unbranded sewing machine.  Probably from a newspaper backshop.    The copper shows well as a display piece.   Early 1900s.  Neat collectable. 

I'm going to be listing a collection of vintage printers ink blocks over the coming week or so.   Some have wood backing.  Some do not.  Some are really old and some date to the last 50 years or so.   Most, it appears, come from Wisconsin.   I will combine  shipping ---- if you buy more than one ----- in the form of a refund when I pack and ship. 

Please give me a shout if you have questions.    

THE FINE PRINT AND FAQS:   

1. Carefully examine my studio-quality photographs.  I do my best to document any flaws or issues. I tend to go overboard in showing flaws.  I hate surprises when I buy on eBay as much as you do.     I also do my best to accurately describe the items I find.  Some categories I know better than others.  I will tell you what I know and what I have researched.  After that you are on your own.  Please ask questions and I will help out if I can. Some eBayers have been very generous helping me out with the nuances of certain categories.  Feel free to help me out with your knowledge.    I welcome your expertise and enjoy learning about new stuff.  

2.  I basically sell "As Is."    That said, I will accept returns if I have been negligent in my listing information.  This includes outright mistakes, misrepresentations,  or any errors on my part. I do not know everything about everything (don't tell my kids that please).  If you are not sure about something and want to "try it out" at home before having "Buyer's remorse," please do not bid.   Every auction or estate sale I go to is "as is." I do better than that with my return policy.    I mess up once in a while and I have honored all returns.  Please respect this policy. 

3.  I will combine shipping cost when possible.  If you pay first after winning more than one lot, I will refund some of the shipping cost. Or wait until I send an invoice.  Your choice.
