Description Columbian Eagle Press Year: 1859 Serial Number: 816 Built by Henry Watts, London The Columbian, could print at fast speeds, allowing a greater variety of material to be printed, from stationery to hand bills, posters to sales notices, as well as books and newspapers. The counterbalance applied more pressure to the printed surface when linked to a series of levers, producing a cleaner print at a single, light pull of the lever. It was noted for its distinct and ornate appearance: the American eagle acting as a counterbalance weight, together with the wand, serpent, dolphins, olive branch and cornucopia, all having symbolic meanings. An experienced pressman and his assistant could produce up to 250 printed sheets per hour.
