THE WALTER PERFECTING PRESS.

The Bullock press was not long allowed to be the only press for rapid

printing from cylindrical stereotype plates fed by a so-called endless

roll of paper. The principle was applied to a machine constructed in

the London _Times_ office, called, after the name of its celebrated

proprietor, the Walter press. This appears to be an effective press,

but it seems more complicated than either the Bullock or Hoe machine,

and from its mode of delivering the sheets, it is excessively noisy.

The New York _Times_ was printed on it at the Centennial Exhibition in

Philadelphia.
