Manufacturing date of Reprex Presses

Posted May 26, 2008 by Mike Day   859 views    No Comments    Print Print   

Most of the owners of a Reprex Press have said they can’t find any serial numbers. But if you want to know when yours was made, the date is stamped on the press. The month, year, and day are stamped on the top near the end of the backside rail. See attached photo. I hope this helps some of you learn more about the heritage of your press.
