Rights: British patents issued before 1989-08-01 were subject to UK Crown Copyright for a period of 50 years. The Crown copyright on this 1908 patent has expired. Published documents from 1908 are in the public domain in the USA due to the expiration of all possible copyright. The electronic version of this document was issued by the UK Intellectual Property Office via ESP@CENET; I can find no indication that they assert any additional copyright on it. I believe, therefore, that it is in the public domain.

British Patent No. 6523 of 1908. Application date 1908-03-24. Accepted 1909-01-21. Filed by Edward Charles Robert Marks, Consulting Engineer, for the Thompson Type Machine Company (of Chicago).

Notes

This is the British patent filing equivalent to John S. Thompson's US patent No. 1,026,185 (filed 1907-12-05, issued 1912-05-14) for a Type-Casting Machine. It describes the Thompson Type-Caster in a form similar to that manufactured by the Thompson Type Machine Company.
