Mimeograph Machine

Before photocopiers there were mimeograph machines. These were used for things such as church bulletins, school work, and office work. Find out more about this earlier version of the copy machine at the link provided.

Mimeograph machine!

Haven't heard that term mentioned in ages. Used to get school handouts from that machine... they had a purplish ink that smelled good when the paper first came off the press. I bet they use them on that show Mad Men... I think that takes place before photocopying became widespread. Fax machines are on their way to becoming the mimeographs of the 2000s...
