$0.50 on something leather related. Maybe shoes, maybe not.
If that isn't it, it is another wazzat or athingmahoozit like what my next of kin will drag to the street in some (hopefully distant) day in the future.

i think it is put together wrong and laying on its front. i think the Y-shaped piece should line up with the angled metal piece it clamps to and the part sticking up with the three bolts in it gets bolted to your workbench. what it's for, i have no idea.

My advice would be that if you don't know what it is, you probably shouldn't bid on it.

Very much ahead of its time and thus never caught on, but it's obviously the press for screen printing T-shirt slogans in Victorian times. As nobody would appear in public wearing an undershirt as an outer shirt (distinct contrast with our times when any article of clothing may be displayed) the personal and political statements made never got in the news and the trend failed.
