Yes, and 1-part paper gave a sharper "steel band" effect while 5-part was closer to a steam-calliope playing in a circus tent! Ahh, those old chain 1403s.. In my early Service Bureau days ('66/'67) we regularly did processing for the various wool brokers (and for the Wheat Board too), and some of their stationary was magnificent.. beautiful colours, "engraved" paper, aromatic carbon sheet inks.. mmmmm.. it was a pleasure to come in for graveyard shift and linger lovingly around the decollator! (I wonder if a Chemical Hazard sign might be required at the decollator station these days?)
