An ingenious new device recently placed on the market in the United States permits a typist to make inked copies of a letter without the use of carbon paper. It consists of a metal frame with notched ends holding a replaceable ribbon. Two sheets of paper are inserted in the typewriter, and the frame is then dropped upon the platen with the ribbon between them. The typewriter’s paper guide, lowered upon the notches, keeps the duplicator from turning. In this way duplicates are obtained without smudging. Either black or two-colour ribbons may be used in the duplicator, giving a copy always identical with the original. Replacement ribbons have metal tips for clean handling. An attachment enables more than one copy to be made at one time*
