EVERY MAN HIS OWN PRINTER

LETT'S PATENT
INSTANTANEOUS COPYIST

Enables anyone to produce 50 to 100 copies of a document in a few minutes without machine or chemical appliance of any sort. It is in use in thousands of offices in Great Britain, and is superior to any other copying process, because
    (1) It yields better copies and more of them;
    (2) The composition is more durable;
    (3) It is relatively much cheaper, and
    (4) The writing is more easily removed after use. 
In Mahogany Boxes with receptacle for printing paper, supply of ink, and sponge.

GENTLEMEN,—When passing through Southampton on my way here, I purchased one of your Instantaneous Copyists, and have since used it repeatedly with such infinite satisfaction that I feel bound to express my thanks to you. I frequently require about a dozen copies of a writing or drawing; formerly I had to pen each one separately, now your apparatus saves me this, and in a few minutes I get as many good impressions as I require.
                           Yours truly,     •    •    •    •
