Old hectograph

[edit]

Can someone tell me something about a hectograph, I bought it at a garage sale it's in a wooden box about 2 ft.x 1.5 ft. Copyright on the inside cover says 1932. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.196.95.237 (talk) 15:29, 7 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Encyclopaedic Tone

[edit]

This really needs a big clean up to make it more encyclopaedic in tone - I just removed an exclamation mark, but there is a bunch more re-writing that needs doing... and some of the refs are just to YouTube videos.

Right now it reads like a magazine article on why Hectographs are a fun hobby. mrs smartygirl | Talk 14:15, 5 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. It's dreadful. I'd have an excellent scheme for rewriting it, but the margins on the edges of my days are too small. Snezzy (talk) 12:41, 28 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hectograph

[edit]

School teacher mom would bring home some papers that duplicate and we would sit there duplicating by use of this purple gel. Now there's a memory! whoEhuey (talk) 18:15, 8 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Current Uses

[edit]

Almost all the content in the Current Uses section refers to variations of the monoprint process. The hectograph is a true printing process that produces multiple copies of the original. IMO most of this section should be deleted. Kbk (talk) 17:11, 9 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Process section needs illustration

[edit]

As someone unfamiliar with how this works, I had to read it a few times before I understood. Or... I think I understand, but if I saw an illustration of the process that would clear everything up. B9 (talk) 21:32, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
