The #ColtsArmory press was so ideal, still being used today primarily for #Diecutting. Ours was made ca 1888 at Colt's Patent Firearms Manufacturing Company. Displayed with an 1887 Colt's #Thunderer pistol made at the same factory in Hartford, CT.

Merritt Gally invented the revolutionary Universal #printing press, which was manufactured by Colt’s Armory with the same tools used to make their firearms. John Thomson would eventually take over production, but still kept the Colt’s name. Inland Printer 1902 Printing Art 1920

Colt's Armory printing press. We just finished restoration of the press. Gun is a Thunderer .41 cal and made in 1887. Just 1 year before the press. Both made in Hartford factory.
