Edit: Mimeographed

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Mimeographs, along with spirit duplicators and hectographs, were common technologies for printing small quantities of a document, as in office work, classroom materials, and church bulletins. For even smaller quantities, up to about five, a typist would use carbon paper.

Comparatively,

we’re so spoiled!

They called them spirit duplicators because they used alcohol :o

The ink was purple and smelled weird. You could always tell when the teacher had run off the copies (we sometimes called them dittos) right before class.
