Manufacturer's text: The Press Room at the governmental Bureau of Engraving and Printing at Washington, where are printed all United States postage stamps and currency, is known as the "bee hive" because it is such a hive of activity. In the one large room are upward of 500 hand presses, each manned by a plate printer, who is aided by a woman assistant. Thousands of dollars of money are printed every minute.
