I still know too little about how these were actually operated.

Indeed curious how they did that; where to hide the registers. By coincidence, a Remington 11 with integrated Wahl Adding Machine mechanism popped up on the local auction site today complete with it's case. These did show some extra mechanism and keys.RobertGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01841652527282627317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12306335.post-89540176488664498862013-05-08T03:19:30.915+01:002013-05-08T03:19:30.915+01:00What makes the little Ruf a Buchungsmaschine?
