Kingsley gold (foil) stamping machine, ca. 1936
This listing is for a gold (foil) stamping machine, manufactured by the Kingsley Gold Stamping Machine Company, as pictured. There are no cords or accessories, other than what is shown. It appears this machine dates from the mid – 1930s. There is a “Patent Pending 2177″ on the machine; my research shows that a patent was filed in 1932 by Lewis Kingsley for a stamping machine. An application was granted in 1936, published in US2047373A. Also, one of the accessory pieces is labeled with patent no. 2,148,563 which was published in February 1939 in Vol. 499 of the Official Gazette of the U.
