Gents:
I operate a 1923 built Kelly #2 (later the B model) as a diecutter. The Kelly #3 (later the C) appears to be the press in the photos above. There seem to be quite a number of these machines in the Northwest United States. Right now I am cleaning up a Kelly C that another person wishes to use for die-cutting (thankfully he's kept the ink fountain and rolls).
Is there a source for an operators manual for Kelly Presses and in particular, the Kelly C. I have questions on the layout of the delivery unit for these, since the delivery is a swing away unit and I'm not sure how the sheet is dropped at that point.

Thanks
