Contact:

	The Printer's Shopper
	P.O. Box 1056
	Chula Vista, CA 92012
	
for a free catalog. They have two devices which might interest you:

1.	Electric device looks like a toaster and electrically folds
	documents into thirds. I don't know if it will take multiple
	sheets, or is limited to one sheet. About $150.00
	
2.	A mechanical device that is like a book. You put a pile of
	paper into it and fold it over and it folds the paper with it.
	Much easier than hand folding. Aboaut $30.00
	
Happy Folding
