For sale is one New Hermes Engravograph engraving copy machine. Made in New York, NY circa 1950. Item has been tested by Community Forklift staff. New Hermes, Inc was founded in New York, NY in 1938 by Norbert Schimmel. Schimmel brought portable engraving to the United States in the form of New Hermes' pantograph engraving machines. Prior, engraving machines in Europe frequently weighed in around 1000 lbs. and were used in large scale and industrial applications. As production for consumer goods increased after World War II, Schimmel drove New Hermes back into the market.  Approximate dimensions: 13" x 9" x 10". In store sales do not apply to online items. This item is being sold by Community Forklift, a nonprofit organization that turns our region’s waste stream into a resource stream by recycling building materials and making them available at affordable prices. Did you know construction and demolition debris makes up OVER HALF of our nation’s solid waste? Contractors and manufacturers need to clear out leftovers and excess inventory, and have to throw away brand new items. During renovations, homeowners often have to toss out perfectly good things, like gently-used cabinets or appliances. These materials can be sold cheaply, so homeowners and small businesses can afford repairs – making neighborhoods cleaner and safer. We are also a resource for nonprofit, churches, and temples that fix up homes for the elderly or disadvantaged. Schools, artists, and theatre groups can buy low-cost art materials or props. Renovators can find antique trim to preserve historic buildings. Local governments receive less debris at landfills and incinerators, saving money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Everyone benefits from less waste and a cleaner environment. The proceeds from this sale go to help lift up communities in the DC                                                                                 region, by making repairs affordable, reducing waste and creating green jobs!
