Descripción
Heavy vertical presses used for pressing newly bound books, pressure being applied by lowering a platen by means of a long central screw, today used primarily for hand-bound books. A larger version (nearly twice the size) was formerly used to squeeze the moisture out of large sheets of newly-made paper; today most paper is pressed with hydraulic presses.
