Kelsey Excelsior 3x5 Model M Letterpress + extra chase - 100% restored
My best guess on the original manufacture date of this press is 1940's or 50's. I am including an extra refurbished chase with locking bars with this press. 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 a clear coat. The raised type in the castings have been accented with silver 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 and platen spring are both new and made of stainless steel. The platen has been balanced to the chase bed with.060" packing under the tympan and is included with the press. The additional sheets of press packing included will allow you ... moreto 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& trucks are new and 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 enough so that the back of the press will not lift off when you push the press on impression. Included with this press: 2 rollers& trucks- 2 sheets.010 press packing-

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!

Kelsey Excelsior 5x8 Model O, Restored, Accessories, New Rollers. Last Chance!
Kelsey Excelsior Model O. Cleaned, Restored, Tested. Last Chance! I am leaving on vacation on Tuesday. July 23rd, and will not return until August 8th. I can ship on Monday, July 22nd IF you pay before 3 p.m. Central Time. OTHERWISE you will wait for shipment on or after August 8th. Bid accordingly. I understand the hesitation to buy from someone who has 1 postitive feedback only. I can state that I'm trustworthy. Am interested in providing good service, and well respond to your inquiries and concerns. I will not give this press away, though. I have another press, but don't need two. However, I'll keep it and work out the home-front issues that are created if it doesn't sell this time. It is an excellent item, with much of what you need to get started out of the box. I'll even throw in a tube of Kelsey black ink. I've ... morenot tried it, but I have had the tube open and it flows well. Should work. Give this serious consideration. This Kelsey press looked rough when I got it. But I knew it could be cleaned up and put back in operation. I stripped it and cleaned off all the rust, primed it with a high grade primer, and top-coated it in cobalt blue metallic paint from Rustoleum. These are all orginal parts. They do not show wear that will affect performance. The lettering is highlighted in silver. The ends of the steel rods are bright and shiny. The j-hooks cleaned up nicely. The springs are good, and the rollers and trucks move smoothly over the chase bed rails. It has been fully lubricated and operates smoothly. Mounted to a nice hardwood board before shipping! The ink disk does have some pitting. But I inked it up andthe new rollers printed the page you see. The platen is in excellent adjustment, and the type"kisses" the paper to leave a clean impression. You could add a bit more packing to make for a firmer impression. I've inserted into the platen a heavy card stock base. Topped with 3 sheets of packing paper and a generic paper tympan sheet. I'm including: 1- Restored Kelsey

Kelsey & Co. "Excelsior" printing press complete with Type drawers
This Kelsey& Co. Excelsior" model 5X8 press belonged to a Virginia family for several generations. It appears to be complete and functional. And operates easily. When received it still had the last print job set in it. The wood spacers had shrunk and the type fell out when it was moved however. All the springs. Rollers, etc appear in good shape. The press is all original and not restored in any way. The gold leaf is still present on the letters of Excelsior on the side. The press includes 2 wooden printer's drawers with type and the wood& brass spacers required to set it. This is a heavy cast iron machine(approx. 45 Lbs. The shipping cost VIA UPS Ground will probably be approx. 60.00. I will mount it on a piece of plywood. And reinforce the package to ensure it arrives OK. The type drawers would be shipped separately as they ... moreare fairly light. Thank You for viewing and good luck! Please note that the shipping cost listed in the title section is incorrect. The press cannot be shipped UPS Ground for 29.16. The actual shipping cost will be. 60.00 to 80.00 for 2 to3 packages due to the weight of the press. I want to be sure to avoid any misunderstanding of the shipping cost as the item is heavy cast iron. Thanks.

Kelsey Mercury Model P 5-8 Excelsior Hand Lever Platen Letterpress
Kelsey Mercury Model P 5-8 Excelsior Hand Lever Platen Letterpress This is a fully functional table-top platen lever press manufactured by Kelsey& Company. As shown in the photos it is complete with all parts and ready to produce. This hand lever press is in good working condition. But has not been used in more than 40 years. I obtained it from a business sale in 1973 and have not used it for printing since then. The press still operates smoothly but the working parts need cleaning and lubrication to function at their best. Some parts have dried ink on them. But this can be removed with solvent. The original paint finish on the press is generally in good condition with few chips or nicks. There is no rust on any of the working parts. This late manufacture Kelsey Model P includes the l ocking bed feature not found on the earlier manufactured ... moremodels. It also includes an impression counter that is operated by the action of the press handle. The Kelsey presses are no longer in production and therefore will continue to increase in value as collectors acquire them. Information. Supplies and instruction for the use of the press can readily be found on the internet. The Press measures 24' long x 16' high x 14' wide and weighs 68 lbs with rollers and trucks installed. The press is mounted on a 16 inch square 3/4 inch thick plywood base.

Parts/Fix Kelsey & Co Excelsior 3 x 5" Letterpress Tabletop Printing Press 1893
I sold this quite awhile ago for $300. However unfortunately the plate was cracked in two during shipping and another arm beneath the plate has broken. I'm sure there's people out there who can salvage the parts or perhaps even repair this to working condition. There is some light rust which can clearly be seen in the orange hue. Originally this was black with gold detailing. Much of this black patina and gold detail remains but it is far from complete. This weighs near 30 pounds(shipping will be based upon buyer location since it is so heavy) There is an April 6. 1893 patent date as well as patent numbers for England, France and Germany. I am not real familiar with these letter presses. So I won't be able to answer technical questions. This would need a fair amount of TLC to bring it back to life, but there are inevitably some ... moregood parts on here that can be used to go that route. Shipped based upon buyer location(shipping something this heavy out West can be very expensive) If I'm able to find a cheaper option than the one automatically calculated(USPS Parcel) then that will be used and I will pass savings onto you. Payment I have had to take precautions because of people not paying. You will have 4 days to pay. Then an unpaid item case will be opened. From this point you will have another 4 days to pay. That's EIGHT total days, however if you don't pay the case will close and show on your Ebay record. At this time the item will be offered to the next highest bidder or re-listed. A case HAS to be opened to recoup selling fees. Shipping I only ship within the US or to eligible Countries through the Ebay Global shipping program(however I don't use this for all items) If it doesn't say I ship to your Country in shipping details. Then I won't, no exceptions, sorry. The shipping service will depend on the buyers location and the package weight. I predominantly use Priority Mail unless an item qualifies for First Class, however I will use Parcel Select in some instances particularly

Antique Kelsey & Company Model 3 X 5 Excelsior Printing Letter Press
First off. I don't know much of anything about printing presses, but I will describe as best as possible. The is an antique Excelsior Letter Press that prints a 3" by 5" card. It is marked on the handle as well as the base. Size is about 8&1/2" by 19, and it weighs about 32 pounds. The plate with the letters in it has a patent date on the bottom- hard to read, but I think it is 1893. Condition is as found and as shown. While I don't know if it's missing anything else, it is missing the flat round plate. The print rollers look quite dry and I would guess that they need to be replaced. Other than that, it looks good to me. Please look at all of my photos for best idea of quality and condition. That's all I can tell you about this. I am sure it could be easily made to be functional again. US ship only. Thanks ... morefor looking!

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.
