EVENS, Platt  (active 1854-60) seal-engraver, Cincinnati.
           By 1858 Evens had reportedly engraved over 30,000 seals for customers worldwide according to 
           Moore. Groce & Wallace state he invented a seal press. Kenney stated he engraved Cincinnati 
           Civil War storecards.

           Evidently he never signed any of his work, thus unknown.
