"The ANSON HARDY CUTTING MACHINES
are the best and cheapest low priced machine mode,
and have a national reputation for utility and du?
rability."?(The Electro-typer, Chicago.)
'Tho ANSON HARDY PAPER CUTTER is by
far the best machine which can be obtained for a
less price than one hundred dollars. It is of great
strength.
"These machines have always taken the highest
stand. It is the only machine to which is applied
the patent Movable Cutting Board. This device has
a reputation of itself; by it, the cutting board can
be instantly and accurately moved, so that a perfect ,
cut is Insured. This is a very important point in
this machine, and one that Is possessed by no other.
It greatly reduces the labor ofpreparation in work?
ing the paper backward and forward. We cannot
too strongly recommend the advantages of this pat?
ent movable, board. It is. ?worGa the price of this
machine, and purchasers should folly understand
how highly it is M> be valued."?(Bowell's 4 Co."?
Mouthly Reporter and Printer'? Gazette.)
The LATEST IMPROVE! HARDY CARD
CUTTER is pronounced the most desirable Ca k d
Cctter in the market, for the general uses of a
printing office.
The well-known RUGGLES CARD CUTTER
with my latest improvements, is still preferred by
many printers, and holds its favoritism over other
machines.
?S- None genuine but these having my fuH ad?
dress lettered in tho castings.
43? Newspapers in want of advertising, from
first parties, should send for my circular proposal.
