No. 5730 Rolling Page Transfer Cabinet Truck
This truck is intended for storing and transferring newspaper pages in the chases. It is
practical in design, and has proven very useful and economical in many newspaper plants.
The transferring of forms from the make-up table to the truck is simple and easily
accomplished. The letterboard is placed on the top of the transfer truck (see illustration)
making the total height from floor to top of board 8 inch less than the surface of a standard
newspaper make-up table. When the transfer truck is rolled alongside it is very easy to
slide the page from the surface of the table to the
surface cf the letterboard. Any variation in height
which might be occasioned by uneven floors is over-
come by the extension side rails on the letterboard.
(See illustration of newspaper letterboard on page 37.)
These rails when placed on the surface of the make-
up table bring the two surfaces in line.
