The ADANA Eight-Five, first introduced in 1953, is a historically significant and highly popular tabletop press in Britain. Specifically designed for hobbyists, this press encapsulates the charm and nostalgia of the early days of printing. The Adana Eight-Five's mechanical automatic inking system is a marvel of the industrial design of that era. This ingenious feature, which moves the twin rollers over an inked disc when the handle is pulled down, allows for a seamless and efficient printing process. This classic piece not only offers a unique, hands-on printing experience but also serves as a tangible connection to the rich history of printing.
