Hats off to the woman who pulled the plug! The candid people obviously thought of that!

[@gretchendietz1599]

I kept waiting for someone to remove the blank paper but no one did.

[@rocky3993]

Yes, they put the cord in a very conspicuous place right in front of the victim. Too bad it was not the real plug for the duplicator.

[@roachtoasties]

This reminds me when I was in the sixth grade. Back then the school had mimeograph machines. The teacher showed us how it operated (there was a handle to crank on it). It was my turn to make about 35 copies to give to the class for our homework. I went to the room with the machine with the stencil and started cranking. Instead of making 35 copies for the class, I must have made 1,000 copies (more than enough for every student in the school). I came back to class an hour later with the 1,000 copies. That was the last time the teacher asked me to run the mimeograph machine. :)

[@GothGuy885]

remember watching the teacher run off copies on one of those hand crank machines. I loved the way he ink smelled.

These old Candid Camera Gold classics are the best...a copier gone crazy...lol. 😂

Staged all the way.

@@fjccommish what? All of candid camera was staged.

[@ErnestTeeBass]

Oh to once again smell the mimeograph copies from school in the 60s and 70s…. ahhhhhh….

[@GothGuy885]

I remember those Mimeograph /spirit machines. when I was in the lower grades in the 1960's,70's, I used to love the smell of the ink. 😀👍

[@sherrymiller2302]

Pulling the plug is the first thing I would think of regarding a run-away machine. My husband owned a copier company and some people would call to say the machine wouldn't run at all. The first question the service dept. would ask is if the machine was plugged in. You'd be surprise how many times it was not...lol! This usually happened when the machine had multiple users.

[@jeanscruggs812]

These oldies bring back fond memories...mimeograph machines, manual typewriters, shorthand, dictaphones. Very funny pranks.

[@wearethenewsnow3644]

And very classy people

[@zz449944]

Mimeograph machines were fun -- but Spirit Duplicators that used an alcohol-based solution were way more fun -- the smell of the printed papers was great. Every school kid in America sniffed their ditto papers when they were handed to them. Photocopiers ruined all that. By the end of the 1980's, you couldn't give away spirit duplicators or mimeograph machines and all the stenciling equipment that went with them. The same happened to typewriters after desktop computers took over offices everywhere. Now, in 2023 you would be hard-pressed to find carbon paper to purchase if you needed some.

[@stevenelief6784]

Less technology was better. No spy cameras for school violence, there was none.

[@paulefstathiou1819]

Top Shelf , thankyou !

[@AFloridaSon]

One good thing about paying for KZbin, is we can get get full episodes of Candid Camera.

[@claztube]

...and no commercials that interrupt our videos and movies from our favorite channels!

[@toastnjam7384]

This bought back bad memories. My first job in the radio shack as a Navy radioman was making copies on this type of copier. We got a lot of messages and I had to make multiple copies to be distributed to different departments. Standing at the copier for 8 hours with one meal break was a bear. USN 1970-73

[@sugarpacketchad]

My dad had a mimeograph machine in the 70's. The ink did have a nice smell >:-)

The one lady got smart and unplugged it but it kept going 😃

Thanks, Columbo

[@roachtoasties]

Candid Camera obviously had that figured out, with an alternate power source the ladies couldn't see.

[@sherrymiller2302]

Obviously that was a dummy plug. The real one was hidden....

[@mas5867]

Her outfit immediately struck me as "smart" and she indeed did turn out to be smart.

[@andrea4246]

Smart lady, pull the plug. A ghost machine. Funny stuff.

[@mikegruber172]

Did they always film around NYC back then?

[@debbieflaherty1975]

Unplug it. Edit: WOOPSEY!

[@marytermini1381]

Why didn't she just unplug it? LOL!!!

Reminds me of Lucy at the chocolate factory.😊

Seems like someone could get easily injured with that contraption.

[@fododude]

Yes! The seem to have taken chances then that wouldn't fly today.

[@susanmorgan4151]

Are you kidding me?

[@mas5867]

Somebody out of sight was watching and turning it on and off. The feeder seemed to be near the bottom and their attention was on the output. With both of those in mind, I bet the risk was minuscule.

[@stevenelief6784]

Does anyone remember the heavy ink smell from the machines. The fluid was toxic. Note the authentic New York accents.

Errrr, a Roneo spirit duplicator?, or is my Alzheimers kicking in?

My husband sold and serviced (INK) Roneo duplicators when they came out. Unlike other duplicators at the time, the machine could produce full color copies and the registration was right on.
