By far, most notaries in 1977 were using raised embosser seals.

The current trend is towards rubber stamps, because they are easily scanned and photocopied. Most states now require notaries to use a rubber stamp, but many states allow an embosser seal to be used in addition to the stamp.

Why are notary seals backwards?

I assume you are referring to embossers ("raised seals") as opposed to stamps. Embossed impressions are traditionally upside down/backwards because the seal press is meant to impress the seal from the left of the page or from the bottom of the page. Since most of the time the notary's signature is placed on the right side of the page, and many notaries place the seal on top of their signature, they must angle the seal press in such a way that the impression is upside down. Since the seal is round it doesn't make any *legal* difference which was it is impressed. There *are* seals that impress from the right side of the page, and they can be made that way upon request. However, most notary seals impress from the left or the bottom, so notaries must affix them backwards in order to place them on top of their signature.
