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?)

the tractor clutch and
