Vintage Paper Embosser Stamp/Press By Shaway Shaw & Sons

If you are looking for an interesting industrial bit of kit for your vintage office, then look no further than this Vintage Paper Embosser Stamp/Press By Shaway Shaw & Sons. Used to impress the company logo on business letters.

Cosmetically, the mechanical embosser is in good condition. It does have some scuffs and scratches commensurate with age and use, and the die is rusty.

Interchangeable Die format- the one included is the company logo for John Mottershead and Company but Shaw (https://www.shaws.co.uk/corporate-seals-presses.cfm) would probably produce a new die for you, for an undisclosed cost.

A great item to display on a desk or to use as a prop for photo shoot, theatre or film.

The actual logo image size is 35mm in diameter.

Very heavy industrial design, dating to the 1930s-60s.

Approximate Maximum Dimensions:

Die diameter: ~ 3.5cm
Base Width: 6.5cm
Base Length: 14cm
Total Height, base to top of lever: 12.3cm
