PATENT IMPROVED DOUBLE CYLINDER PRINTING MACHINE. The Proprietors have also spared neither pains or expense in improving their Double Cylinder Press, and have made many important improvements in its construction. Great additional speed in Printing has been gained, at the same time particular attention has been paid to simplicity in its movements, with a view to case and still greater durability. The addition of the patent sheet-flying apparatus to this Press dispenses with the necessity of two boys to take off the sheets. The Press, therefore, now requires but two boys to attend it instead of four as formerly, and will print as fast as they can feed it, say from 3000 to 6000 impressions per hour, depending on its size. For simplicity, ease, great expedition, economy of labor, perfection of workmanship, strength of material, and consequent durability, this machine is altogether unequaled.
