1907 · Stepped Drum · Werk 414 von 1.871

A stepped-drum calculating machine in a black enamelled case, gilt lettering on the front of the case reading "Tim", sliding setting levers in a curved slot plate across the top, a wide carriage with two rows of white numerals on black drums, every drum showing the single digit 0, a crank with a black wooden grip at the right, every other surface plain black enamel and polished brass, standing on a dark baize-covered table before a deep neutral background, a single raking light from the left catching the gilt letters and the white numerals.
Jeder Verweis nennt seine Art. „Vorläufer“ allein wäre eine Behauptung.
