I don't think that these are necessarily "cheap imitations of rust prints" as the original story states. Just a newer form of an old technique. I have many hand cut wooden stamps and tjaps-both copper and wood, that I use for this type of printing. I also use them for wax and glue resist prints when I'm playing with dyes.

edited for spelling.
I believe the "cheap imitations" they're referring to is in reference to sales of lesser goods by other producers.
