sp15 on ebay right now, starting at $9,500
Auction ended–no bids. Expect to see it relisted.
I saw that a Model 0 sold for $200. That’s more like it.
The fellow’s partner is under the impression these sell in the 12 to $16,000 range. They are closing out a letterpress shop and will have a couple of Linotypes and other stuff as they get around to it. This press was shipped 5/19/59, so it has the 219 style gripper bar assembly, and was originally in Akron at The Akron Typesetting Co., has power inking and a galley, .968 bed.
hell, i’m gonna sell mine for 20 and go live in mexico a couple years…
$12,000! Obnoxious!
