The SPHEEDOGRAPH provides a quick and easy method for making as many as 100, clear, legible copies direct from an original writing. No stencils or printing inks are used. The ex- pense of stencils therefore is eliminated and it is not even necessary to have an experienced operator, as anyone can make copies the SPEEDOGRAPH way. All you have to do is type one original on ordinary bond paper or cards, and the SPHEDOGRAPH quickly makes the copies exactly like the original. The SPEEDOGRAPH method involves no new work or new system. It simply replaces manual typing and does the necessary work in a far more speedy, accurate and economical way. Everytime you see a typist writing the same thing the second time, you see a money-saving application for the SPEEDOGRAPH. In your library you doubtless have many forms of which several copies are needed. You can use the SPEEDOGRAPH for copying Catalog Cards, Book Lists, Instructions, Hxamination Application Forms, Letters - and all those things that must be copied quickly. The SPHEDOGRAPH has a wide usefulness in the Library field and its convenience and saving are worth many times its cost. é SPEEDOGRAPH YOUR CATALOG CARDS The SPEEDOGRAPH method is especially adapted to making catalog cards. All of that tiresome re-writing - typing information over again on several cards - is eliminated. When the SPEEDOGRAPH is used, the card is typed only once and from that one master card, the SPEHEDOGRAPH will in a few seconds, make as many cards as you need. The new self-feeding device is responsible for the quick work. Instead of putting each card on the printing sur- face by hand, all the cards are put in the feeding frame and automatically fed one by one to the copying surface. This feeder can be so equipped as to handle two or more sets of cards at the same time. Valuable time is saved not only by eliminating re- writing but also by eliminating the necessity for proof reading or checking. Every card must be exactly like the master card, because it is made by a direct method of copying. The cards are perfectly dry the moment they come from the machine and the index headings may be filled in at once. By using the SPEEDOGRAPH method you don't have to wait for the printed cards and when printed cards are not available, you have a quick, easy and very inexpensive printing method of your own, This one application of the SPEEDOGRAPH alone makes it an indispensable piece of library equipment. It solves a serious copying problem and ends the interminable and expensive re-typing of the many catalog cards used in the average library. The delay, drudgery and expense of dupli- cating work in libraries can be so easily overcome by the SPEHEDOGRAPH method. FOR BOOK LISTS, INSTRUCTIONS, NOTICES ETc. Another important application for the SPHEDOGRAPH method is in getting out Book Lists. The demand for these lists is constantly increasing and the SPHEDOGRAPH takes away the burden and cost of old-time methods. If you have a swift, clean and inexpensive way to make up these lists, the library becomes a more useful institution. To be able to make as many as 100 clear, accurate copies from a single typewritten sheet, without using stencils or printing inks, means a real definite saving. There is a convenience too the value of which cannot be estimated. Anyone can use the SPHEDOGRAPH and you can have the copies run off and available much earlier than by any other method. A specimen book list copy will be found in this booklet. Every day you will find urgent need for the SPEED- OGRAPH. The method is so flexible, so comprehensive that it can be profitably applied to all kinds of dupli- cating work in your library; and once installed for any particular purposes, its usefulness will so rapidly extend that within a brief time, it will be in constant use - constantly saving and doing away with scores of laborious tasks. When you want to make up Training Class Exami- nations, Reports, Request Slips, Application Forms, Circular Letters, and all those dozens of things you need every day, just turn to this easy and efficient method. It is purely a replacement proposition - simply a better way of doing what you are now doing. Just doing it in a better way, making your work more efficient - thats all! HOW TO MAKE COPIES ON THE SPHEDOGRAPH The great convenience of the SPHEDOGRAPH is its Simplicity. No experienced operator is required. Any boy or girl can successfully use the SPEEDOGRAPH. When writing the original or master, a duplica- ting ribbon is used on the typewriter - or you may use duplicating carbon. Typing is done in the usual way, using an ordinary bond paper. To get the machine ready for use, simply moisten the surface of the SPHEDOGRAPH roll with a sponge and by means of the feeding device and impression roller the original card or sheet is placed in contact with the copying surface. An exact impression of all matter on the original is left on the copying surface of the roll. From this impression as many as 75 or 100 exact duplicate copies can be made, All of the blank sheets or cards may be placed in the feeding frame at one time and copies run off as quickly as one cares to operate the machine. When one set of cards or sheets have been printed, just two or three turns of the winding handle brings a fresh surface into position and you are ready for the next lot. The SPHEDOGRAPH roll is 15 feet long, and 24 hours after you have used any surface, you can go right back and use it again. Every part of the roll is capable of being used 20 to 30 times. So one roll will reproduce thousands of copies making the cost of each set almost nothing. One hundred copies of a full sized sheet should not cost more than two cents. Compare this with any other method and you will see how much less expensive the SPEHDOGRAPH method is. But the money saved is only incidental to the major saving of time.
