AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This Lion Menucator Nr. 4 is a vintage duplicator, which works on a silk screen principle. (The screen is intact, not damaged.) It could have come down from Scotland (family), but I don't know.
It belonged to my mother, who was a Business Studies Lecturer (our surname on a small tape on front side of case).
It was used to produce various letters, business-oriented paperwork in the 1960's.
I'm afraid some ink has spattered and/or leaked into the inner box. Naturally through use and non-use pauses. Generally all parts of the duplicator are in working order.
I have included the original ink tube etc which underline the authenticity and origin. (The paperwork fascinated me.)
The box is mahogany/plywood, brass corners and handle are generally good and sound. Slight surface corrosion, as well as signs of both age and wear.
