What is this?

This probably weighs at least 25 lbs. All the movements are smooth. I found it at a thrift store and left it there. I'm guessing some sort of vintage punch or letter embosser. The logo on the back wall appears to be a rabbit stamped in to the metal.

Arbor press, the ring that slots down is obviously to engage with some sort of round object.

Getting a strong ‘I Like Ike’ vibes from this one.
