Description
#2 Kelly with Extended Delivery
24 x 35
Serial #389
Manufactured by the American Type Founders in the 1920's, the Kelly Press was created to meet the requirements of commercial printers as a two-revolution automatic cylinder press with an automatic feeder and jogger. The model has a top speed of 3600 impressions per hour. It is on printing large solid forms with long runs that the cylinder press has no equal. The Kelly press is still known to roll the most elegant of impressions.
The Kelly press employs a small cylinder revolving in stationary bearings over a horizontal bed that supports the type form. The bed moves back and forth under the inking rollers with a reciprocal movement beneath the rotating cylinder. Grippers, closing on a sheet of paper, hold it against the turning cylinder, which applies sufficient pressure to print as it passes over the inked type form. Shooflies then lift the printed sheet off the cylinder after being released by the grippers and passed it on to the delivery.
