Apparatus for moistening adhesive coatings on postage material and the like which includes an enclosure having a container of liquid therein. A plunger is provided to lift an absorbant applicator from the liquid and pass the applicator through an opening in the side of the enclosure. A closure member for the opening is opened in response to the applicator movement. The applicator may be in the form of a human tongue and the closure may be in the form of a human lip.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In accordance with the invention, a device for moistening adhesive coatings on stamps and the like is provided.
The device includes an enclosure member having an open top liquid container.
A spring biased linkage member is pivotally mounted within the enclosure member and biased to a predetermined position.
A moistening member is pivotally mounted to the linkage member about an axis substantially parallel to the linkage member's pivotal axis.
The moistening member is movable from a first position in which it is disposed in the open top container to a second position in which it is extended outwardly from the enclosure member.
A reciprocatingly movable plunger member engages the linkage member to force rotation thereof against the spring bias and to move the moistening member between first and second positions.
