In the decades following the Civil War, the United States emerged as an industrial giant. Old industries expanded and many new ones, including petroleum refining, steel manufacturing, and electrical power, emerged. Railroads expanded significantly, bringing even remote parts of the country into a national market economy.

Industrial growth transformed American society. It produced a new class of wealthy industrialists and a prosperous middle class. It also produced a vastly expanded blue collar working class. The labor force that made industrialization possible was made up of millions of newly arrived immigrants and even larger numbers of migrants from rural areas. American society became more diverse than ever before.

In today’s world the American economy is beginning to show signs of recovering from the disaster the US Government, along with hundreds of other free world governments, created when they shut down their free enterprise systems as a response to Covid-19. Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 5.2 percent in the third quarter of 2023. In the second quarter, real GDP increased 2.1 percent. The increase in the third quarter primarily reflected increases in consumer spending and inventory investment.

Up on the house top reindeer paws, down through the chimney comes Santa Claus, he lands in the fireplace, right on his furry face, ho ho ho he’s all full of snow, ho ho ho, he’s all full of snow, oh up on the housetop crash boom bang, down through the chimney comes the whole gang!

A re-write of the old song, by a friend of ours, a tad irreverent possibly, but then so is he, and anyway, it’s all in good fun!

Speaking of good fun, there exists the age old practice of pre Christmas gift giving that results in items being put in stockings hung on fireplace mantels, often referred to as a slightly separate holiday called St Nick’s, and resulting in a combination of words unique to the practice called stocking stuffers.

The worst thing a stocking can be stuffed with, allegedly, is a lump of coal, which would be put into the dangling footwear of an individual who, during the year, had been naughty rather than nice. Because you know, Santa has this list and he’s checking it twice to determine who might deserve a briquette and who might deserve, instead, something really cool like a custom monogram rubber stamp.

Rubber stamps, incidentally, can make gifts of a perfect size for putting into a sock, they are in fact about the same dimensions as your average lump of anthracite, but for the nice people on your list can be ordered online from us in an enormous variety of choices that include customized self inking stamps, customized pre inked stamps, hand made wood mounted stamps, and even pre inked stamps designed to be used for stamping on all types of materials other than paper, like glass, wood and leather.

In any case, if you are responsible for being the Santa Claus in your family, or if you happen to wind up in an office game called Secret Santa, and you are looking for an idea, we happily suggest our website as a place to start where you can find all kinds of ways to make someone’s holiday merry with a cool, useful, inexpensive and fun custom rubber stamp gift. Google Rubber Stamp Champ…or ask Rudolph to fire up his nose and light your way!

If you took the words “last minute preparations” and wondered to yourself, what time of the year would they characterize most, you’d most likely have to answer “The Holidays!” After all, the words “last minute shopping” pretty much only apply to tearing around on the day before Christmas to make sure you cover all bases with gifts for everyone you gift.

With that in mind, we’d like to remind you that we have the ability to make perfect custom or stock message stamps just in time for your celebrations, even if you might have waited a wee bit too long to order, because we are happy to provide overnight shipping on whatever you need, whether that be Santa’s Signature stamps for the From portion of the tags on your carefully wrapped surprises, or a custom address monogram stamp for a special friend.

The traditional take on the holiday we call Thanksgiving is that it was a small time of peace and sharing when somehow the the conflict between early settlers and the indigenous population came to a lull and for one day they stopped killing each other and instead sat down to a big meal, where everyone ate together and were happy to be sharing good times, at least for a little while.

Historical accounts say that during the autumn of 1621, at least 90 Wampanoag tribe joined 52 English people at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, to mark a successful harvest. It is remembered today as the “First Thanksgiving,” although no one back then used that term.

Since war and conflict are still alive in the world today, there is also tanks giving.

President Joe Biden recently announced that the United States will provide Ukraine with 31 M1 Abrams tanks. That is the required number to equip an entire Ukraine tank battalion.

These tanks are needed, Biden said, because Ukrainian forces are working to defend the territory they hold and will be better prepared for additional counter-offenses.

In Terminator movies the robots get smart and attempt to take over the world by causing nuclear war. In Hollywood the script writers are gifted people with wild imaginations who can make stories like that work. In the real world robots do simple tasks over and over so people don’t have to, and robots never get carpel tunnel syndrome or need workers compensation.

Now, robots and artificial intelligence as it’s called, can be programed to drive automobiles, and heading into the Callahan with a passenger or two they epitomize carpool tunnel syndrome, but they react to things skilled drivers wouldn’t react to, and sometimes it seems like the smarter devices get, the dumber they become, like phones or computers that autocorrect your typing and turn words like hellbent into helpful because they thought that’s what you meant.

Of course there is a huge difference between automated and automatic, the latter being the old school and brainless things, like automatic transmissions that don’t think at all and are simply designed to move your car from second to third, fourth, and so on as you speed up, and ingeniously perform these procedures flawlessly without you needing to apply a clutch or manipulate a gearshift lever.

Automatic weapons place the next round in the chamber without needing a rotating barrel, and in fact, the word automatic has been in the culture for a long time meaning perfectly, and without question repeating, like the best field goal kicker in the league who comes out and effortlessly sails the ball end over end through the uprights while the refs shoot both their arms into the air and the home team scores another three points.

In this vein we offer a full line of automatic numbering machines that do mindless and flawless repetition and make changes, like the transmission on a car, over and over in a very predictable manner so you can do the stamping work you need to without being second guessed by some device programmed to be smarter than you, but which is instead far from it, to the point of being a nuisance.

With our automatic numbering machines every option available offers superior quality for long-lasting performance capable of thousands of impressions. Every impression is clean, clear and easy to read. Our Xstamper® automatic numbering machines feature six to 12 metal wheels/seven actions (repeat, consecutive duplicate, triplicate, quadruplicate, six times and twelve times), drop ciphers, precision movements and lustrous chrome finish. A stylus is included for indexing. Pads should be re-inked with automatic numbering machine ink only.

Our inventory features several choices for adding a high-quality automatic numbering stamp to your tools. Every option available offers superior quality for long-lasting performance capable of thousands of impressions. Every impression is clean, clear and easy to read. LION heavy-duty automatic numbering machines include a wide range of choices from the 5-wheel model to the 13-wheel model. Various specifications are available for your specific individual need. LION numbering machines are precision crafted of one-piece hardened steel frame. All metal interior construction will provide years of reliable use. This self-inking numbering machine is ideal for sequential numbering operations to use as a date and number stamp, serial number stamp and inspection stamp.

So if you want reliability, dependability, durability and perfectly mindless repetition, program your brain to visit our website where you’ll find every choice you’ll need in automatic numbering machines.
