Model No. 3 Job Press

Liberty Press

From Liberty Press:

The Alden Jobber Press is nothing more than a newer Daughaday Press with a different flywheel. Once the Daughaday Company was sold off the rights to the Model press line went to Alden, shortly after that to another company which only put "Model 3 Jobber Press" on the flywheel. The Alden Co. was based out of Cincinnati, Ohio, but it's unsure where the casting for these presses were foundered. It is a clone of a Daughaday Model 3 treadle expect for the flywheel. Alden Press Co. was short lived so there isn't to many Alden Presses out there...most were Daughaday or just Model #3 Jobber Presses.


Steve Alt of Liberty Press said that this press was purchased in Lansing, MI, and he believes in spent most of its life there. He also mentioned that it was broken and brazed back together at some point in its past, adding "it’s amazing it’s still here today."
