VINTAGE ROLLER ENVELOPE AND STAMP WETTER On offer is a vintage envelope and stamp wetter in excellent condition. These instruments were commonly used to moisten the glue on the seals of envelopes and the back of stamps. With the advent of self-sealing envelopes and peel off stamps these roller wetters fell into disuse. Using your tongue to lick envelopes is fraught with problems, not the least is actually cutting your tongue or mouth on the sharp edges of the envelope flap. There has been a resurgence in demand for these vintage roller wetters nowadays for health, safety and hygiene reasons plus there appears to be a growing number of envelopes which are not self-sealing, especially Christmas Card envelopes. If you are a collector, then this is a rare opportunity to obtain an item that was as commonly used in the home and office years ago as adhesive tape. This unique instrument is 10cm long (4”) and its roller is 75mm (3”) long. It comes with a hinged cover lid to protect the wet roller when sitting on a desk/table top or when storing it away till required. I have provided one of the photographs with the instrument in a hand to give you a better idea of its dimensions as sometimes only providing measurements does not always give you an accurate idea of the size of things. As indicated, this wonderful vintage instrument is in perfect condition without any defects whatsoever. You are invited to examine the photographs provided to see this wonderful little instrument from a bygone era.
