Machine Label for Press No. 6.
kindly supplied by a contributor to the website.

Stankoimport was one of the U.S.S.R. Purchasing Agents that supplied orders to F&P on a number of occasions. It is probable that this order refers to the press shown in the background (of which 8 were built) as the press in the foreground is illustrated elsewhere.

A recent contribution to this page is a photo of the press label for O/No. 5560/6.  This refers to Press No. 6.  It is located in the Nakhodka Ship Repair Yard in the Bay of Nakhoda, which is near Vladivostok in Russia.
