In this machine the forms are placed on a cylinder which enables it to run with a continuous rotary movement. The tickets are worked from a roll of paper, and are printed, numbered, cut, and deposited in a receptacle in numerical order in a single operation. The numbering apparatus prints the number in a different color from the body of the ticket, and can be set at 0 or any required number with great facility. The machine will print from 10,000 to 12,000 tickets per hour, and occupies a space of about two feet square.
