    This machine caught my eye at 100 feet (at Stoudt's Black Angus antique mall in Adamstown, PA).

    It was in R.V. Polito's booth (he mostly sells coins) and he was happy to let me photograph it. Basically he said its an old mimeograph machine (I'm guessing before the days of carbon paper, so probably very messy). Just a neat old mechanical thing. I'm thinking you could probably run a Bingo game with it in a pinch.

    The Rotospeed Co. was based in Dayton, OH.

    Part of my summer 2010 whirlwind east coast antiques tour.
