Smile Vintage Heatpress

Check out this heatpress I got from a friend the other day. He was in the t-shirt biz back in the 80's. He did stock transfers and most of his tees would sell between $5 and 7$ each. He had it in storage in the original box with all the paper work. He let me take it home and said if it turns on I could keep it. It still works! I have pressed around 40 t-shirts and I have not had any problems.











Notice the red sticker. That is an inspection sticker dated back to 1-29-88

Oh one more thing. My friend said he also has a cap press, probably from the same company. But he will have to dig through his storage for that one.

I like it.



It looks real, what else do you need ?

It gives me the feeling that I would be dealing with a real person and not a database.



love the marquee...marquee....marquee....marquee....but that's just me.
