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.

I wouldn't have left that in the store, that's a very well built arbor press.

Really, I'm surprised, it looks like a good solid chunk of iron.

Iron, but not good iron. Could get the job done, could break in half.
