wda Posted January 24, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 24, 2017 Interesting, Dunk. Any idea of its industrial application? It doesn't appear to have any specific scientific evidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkCambridgeshire Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted January 24, 2017 David, I assume it's a regular 'office calculator' ... as used in many companies' accounting depts. in the 1940s/50s/60s. A company I worked for in the late 1960s used something similar; we employed skilled lady machine / comptometer operators to perform the calculations. I might go back and attempt some better images using a tripod and a small Lastoloite reflector to fill in the shadows. dunk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
