Not sure how to describe these, we used them at another shop to hang exposed plates in the pressroom and I want to employ them at the current shop. They're hook-shaped and have a tab that hooks on to the place where it's punched. so they can all hang off a pair of hooks mounted to the wall.
Right now we're stacking plates and it's a mess, anybody seen/use these too?
This is close, there'd be another "tongue" piece on the front that bends out to grab the plate punch.
That's pretty cool, I use to be a platemaker back in the day, so I've seen various ways of putting plates in.
Hey I found something!

My favorite was at the paper, send the plates down the conveyor!

Fucking A - that's IT!!! Have a beer (or two) in me! :drunk3: :drunk3: :drunk3: :drunk3:
I got magic google platemaker skills!
I could see someone here getting decapitated if we had plates hanging here.
Hopefully it will be a sales slime on a plant tour.
It's been 20+ years, but I used to work at a place where we had like file cabinet hanging folders, but for plates. Two rails, open the folder, put the plate inside.
