A 5-digit Bates Numbering Machine that I use to stamp all my notebook pages like a mad person! The machine was, from all I could gather, made in the early 20th century, near when plastic was invented and replaced shellac. Each notebook page now has its own unique serial number that I shall forever be able to refer back to for posterity, or if I ever need to present evidence in court from said notebook pages.
- Multicomp 6y agoThank you for introducing me to the concept of a numbering machine, I have now ordered one so that I can replicate your behavior since I seem to go through a journal a month or so. Here I was, manually writing a page number for each and every journal, and then doing it once again for the table of contents :D no wonder I never wanted to write a fresh session after doing all that, my hand was ready to fall off.
