Maker is Lion Company

Never used this so unsure if its in full working order or not. Does need
internal clean / maintenance but appeared to be functional.

To prepare a handwritten stencil,


"A sheet of Mimeograph stencil paper is placed over the finely grooved steel
plate and written upon with a smooth pointed steel stylus, and in the line of
the writing so made, the stencil paper will be perforated from the under side
with minute holes, in such close proximity to each other that the dividing
fibers of paper are scarcely perceptible." After the operator has written a few
lines, the operator moves the stencil upward over the writing plate so that a
new portion of the stencil is on top of the writing plate. "After the stencil
is completed it is placed in the printing frame, by which the stencil is firmly
held taut and in a position for rapid printing. After inking the roller on the
slate furnished for that purpose, pass it over the stencil sheet and a correct
reproduction of the matter stenciled will appear on the paper which has been
previously placed underneath."
