My serial number gives me no information???

Hello, I am trying to find information about my Chandler & Price letter press. I believe it to be an old series from 1911, but I am not sure. The number does not appear on serial lists I have looked at, so any thoughts or information would be greatly appreciated! The number is: B 4818 and it is an 8x12”
So beautiful with its curved spokes on the fly wheel.

Awesome. Where did you find that? I can’t find it anywhere.

I downloaded the list from somewhere online a couple years ago, I don’t remember where. If you’d like a copy email me at:

It has serial numbers for the C&P paper cutters too.

By searching Google for “chandler price serial numbers”.

The FIRST Google listing was a .pdf of all of the listings.

… I’m not sure why the link won’t work in this note but the following one does. If you paste the URL into your browser window it should download for you.

Indeed, 1910.
