This was a prop I built for a production of You can’t take it with you. It was used by one of the actors during the show so the prop has multiple moving parts for the actor to use for business during the scene. The press lever can raise and lower and there is a rack that slides back and opens to load paper onto.

I also built the set for the play but was unable to find any photos of that. If I can find them in the future I will upload those because it was a very cool set.

I also acted in that play and played the part of a ‘G-man’ who worked for the IRS and came to collect unpaid property taxes.
