This is wonderful! I love seeing the old equipment and furniture left behind to tell a little story of its past.

Those look very old, I see a sink and a soap dispenser behind the machines. It looks like they are hiding.

I remember these when I was a little kid in grade school. They would always run so hot and can still smell the ink as it would hit the paper.

I'm old too, I remember these and how I loved the smell of the ink on the paper (kind of explains a few things, 8-O ).

I remember that machine in grade school. The ditto machine is what we called it in the 60's. I loved the aroma of the ink and the warm, sometimes hot copies it made.

Funny...vague recollections of things known as "ditto sheets" and purple ink...wonder how that's different from a mimeograph. -Haha, how would I know, I've never had to get my hands smudged making copies :) Multi-lith? Maybe it graphed more than one lith at a time, LOL!

They still used these types of duplicating machines when I was in grade school -- before xerox copiers were common. If the teacher made the copies just before class the papers would be cold and slightly damp. The ink was blue and sometimes a bit smudged -- a little blurry but still readable.
