For sale is an early (1908) Fuller's Calculator having a Keuffel & Esser Co. (K&E) label both inside the original wood case, and on the calculator (see small plaque in photos). It is âeoeas foundâe, untouched, very well cared for, and fresh to the market. The Calculator is a finely made instrument consisting of cylindrical scales (one slides & rotates), brass pointers, and an extendable brass core with mahogany wood end plates. It has a removable wood handle that mounts to the calculator via wooden threading which results in a snug and secure fit. When placed in the case, the handle is stored within the core. At the base of one of the brass pointers is engraved 2567 above 1908, a serial number and year of manufacture. The scales include markings, âeoeSTANLEY Maker LONDON,âe and, âeoeFULLERS SPIRAL SLIDE RULE.âe According to web research, K&E marketed these instruments from 1895 to 1927, and only the Fuller Model 1. The Calculator is in excellent old condition with a warm patina . The scales have uniform color and finish, with few blemishes. See photos. The scales appear fully readable.
