1903 Addix Calculator... and More!



This is a very simple but really cool machine.



The decal is great on this stripped down version of a Standard.




1930 Remington No.3 in great condition and reporting for duty.




1938 Corona Sterling in mint condition.

I love the mirror like shine in the finish. It sparkles.

I like the gothic style type and color on this Studio 45.



I've never seen this key on a machine before.
