Abstract
An ink stamp having movable type bands. The stamp includes an outer housing having a die plate located at its lower end and carrying an ink impregnated stamp. A frame is mounted for vertical movement within the housing and carries a series of endless type bands with each band having a plurality of spaced type characters with the lowermost character in each band adapted to project through an opening in the die plate. An upper handle or knob is connected to the frame and by pulling upwardly on the handle, the frame and bands can be raised above the die plate to a position where the bands can be rotated to change the lowermost type characters, as desired. The stamp also has a provision to adjust the heights of the type bands relative to the outer housing to insure that the lowermost operating type character is at a level flush with the lower surface of the stamp in the die plate.
