The only thing that looks like a C&P is the treadle. Look at the hollow castings, the roller carriage, and the acute angle of the ink disk. The rounded casting of the bed assembly is very curious and almost Hoe-like. The connector shaft in the top photo was milled on a lathe, very curious. I’ve seen some very early Gordons, and they are not like this at all. Where is this press located?
