Abstract: A passbook page turning mechanism includes independently movable and spaced upper rollers and independently movable and spaced lower rollers which are vertically movable and which grip the passbook and move the passbook from a printing station to a page turning station. A pair of upper and lower longitudinally movable rollers serve as apparatus to turn the pages of the passbook. At the page turning station, a lower roller of the pair of rollers is raised to flex the passbook and an upper roller of the pair of rollers is rotated to turn the page and to complete the page turning operation after which the passbook is moved to the printing station. The lower roller of the pair of rollers is also displaceable in the longitudinal direction from the upper roller of the pair of rollers. The mechanism also provides for turning one or more pages in the opposite direction from the direction of a normal page turning operation.
