This table lists Vandercook Models 0, 01, 03, and 099 only. Currently there are 42 presses listed. Often called “gravity” or “office” presses, these small proof presses differ from the larger models in that the impression cylinder rolls solely on the bearers, are not geared, and do not have an inking assembly nor a motor. These presses also have a separate serial number series. #0101 was the first gravity press manufactured in 1929 and #07952 was the first in 1957, after which production on these models ended. Because of their small size there are still quite a few of these in letterpress shops. The serial number is be stamped into the bed bearer or in the case of the 099 on the bed.
