An ADANA DIGIT FIVE desk printing press - dimensions 22" length x 20" height x 12" approx
Additional info
The Adana model eight-five was a robust machine constructed using the latest techniques of gravity and pressure die-casting, designed by printer's engineers of long experience.
Adana printers were manufactured from 1922 to 1999 in Twickenham, England, but they were to become most famous for the "Eight-Five" and their other vertical platen presses, which were said to be the finest in the world at that time.
Although most of the printing presses produced by Adana were aimed at hobby printers, they were frequently put to commercial use. Adanas are still to be found throughout the world in the hands of colleges, enthusiasts and professional printers. They were quick and easy to use and ideal for the beginner in print.
Parts are also still available for refurbishing these machines.
