Kelsey Excelsior Mercury Model U 5x8 Letterpress - restored & 100% print ready
My best guess on the original manufacture date of this press is post-1940's. I believe this is the most recent 5x8 model that Kelsey made. This press has been completely disassembled. All painted parts were stripped down to the metal and re-finished with 2 coats of primer then 2 coats of color and clear coat. The raised type in the castings have been accented with gold paint. All non-painted parts(pivoting rods. Ink arms, etc. were cleaned thoroughly. The fasteners in platen back and chase have been replaced with new stainless steel hex drive screws. The chase latch spring is new and also made of stainless steel. The roller hook retaining washers. Nuts and pins are all new and made of stainless steel. I fabricated new grippers and gripper bar rod for this press. The platen has been balanced to the chase bed with.050" packing under ... morethe tympan and is included with the press. The additional sheets of press packing included will allow you to change the packing under the tympan to adjust the print impression height as you change stock caliper. This is much easier than re-balancing the platen each time you change stock caliper. The press is currently packed to print on.012" stock. For example. If you wanted to print on.007" stock, you would add a sheet of.005" packing under the tympan. As with any press, the condition of your type and blocks and the uniformity of the type height will ultimately determine the quality of the printed image. The type used to print the proof card was not new. Rollers have been recovered on original journals. Trucks are original steel trucks. Rollers have only been used on this press(to verify press balance and roller& truck quality) to print the card in the photo gallery for this item. The press has been secured with stainless steel fasteners to a base made of oak which is stained& coated with a satin polyurethane. Rubber feet are fastened to each corner of the underside of the base so the press& base will not'walk' when printing. Base is long eno

Kelsey 6x10 letterpress in PERFECT condition Excelsior Mercury with tons more!!!
I have seen my share of tabletop letterpresses. But this thing beats them all! It is so clean and so smooth, I question if it was ever even used. NO ink smudges, NO gouges of ANY kind on the ink table, the previous owner must have loved this baby. These pictures are from the press being taken directly out of my car. nothing touched AT ALL! PLEASE READ. It comes with 3 chases. And 7 SEVEN perfect trays of type. Yup, 7! They all have the cut portions of the type packaging so you can tell what is in the trays. Trays are Incredible, again, NO INK, nothing, all type is super clean and shiny. It does NOT have any rollers, I looked everywhere at the house I got it at, but I am guessing they got thrown out by mistake, I can't see how he could have such an amazing machine and not keep his rollers in equally perfect shape. I can help you locate ... moreexcellent rollers if needed. Press is a 6x10 so it can do a nice size sheet, and again IT IS SO CLEAN! SHIPPING I will help package the press securely at no charge. But you will need to either pick it up, or arrange for transportation. I can help in any way I can, but thats the deal. No sure what else to say. Please feel free to make offers. I just want this baby to find a home where it will be loved and kept as nice as the previous owner.did I mention how CLEAN this thing is? maybe. Thanks and remember to PRINT ANALOG!

Mercury Model 5x8 Excelsior Kelsey & Company Platen Press
Used. In good mechanical condition. No breaks, no welds. Ink table spins freely. Both roller cores need new rubber. I found it in our warehouse yesterday and got the two owners to agree to sell it. I oiled it and took the rollers off, because the rubber was dried up, so I could try it out. It operated smoothly. This morning, I heard one of the owners of our shop say that he believed that it was one of the best ones that you were going to find, whatever that meant. It looks like it hasn't been used much to me. We can't find anything missing except the rubber on the roller cores. The cores and trucks are included. It weighs about 57 lbs.

Kelsey Mercury Excelsior 5x8 Model P Printing Press With Chase
This is a Kelsey Mercury Excelsior 5x8 Model P printing press. It is in solid working condition and includes the chase. But it is missing some other parts. Most notable is the feed dog that turns the ink plate on each press. The hole that it goes into is open and pictured in photo#8. Also missing are the grippers, gripper spring, and the screws that go into the chase. That's all that I know is missing, but I'm not extremely familiar with these presses, so if it isn't in the photograph, then it isn't included. The machine operates smoothly and all nuts and bolts turn freely. Also included is"The Printer's Guide" by the Kelsey Company and"Do Your Own Printing" which is a catalog also put out by Kelsey. I included a photo of page 3 which depicts this printer and gives a blurb on how easy it is to use. ... moreIf you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me. This is a large. Heavy, somewhat brittle item and I pack very securely in heavy duty boxes with thick Styrofoam, foam peanuts, and bubble wrap. I have listed USPS or FedEx as the shipping methods as I have had great experiences with both, but if you desire some other shipping method, or if you would like to pick it up in person, please contact me. Thanks for looking. International bidders: Contact me before bidding. The shipping calculator is often wrong on packages this size and there are many countries I simply no longer can ship a package this size to.

Kelsey Excelsior 5x8 Mercury Model P Letterpress B52F

The press is mounted to an oak base that has been stained and coated with a satin polyurethane. The mounting screws are new and made of stainless steel. There are 4 rubber feet secured with new stainless screws to the underside of the base to keep the press from walking while printing.
