A key book to own.

Few people nowadays retain their comptometer skills. Just as languages die off from atrophy, so also is the fate of the comptometer. You see them gathering dust on desks and in movies, but can you use them if you must? Look closely at the key and you will find two sets of numbers. The small set is for subtraction and division. A good comptometer operator only needs to use the first five rows to complete their calculations. This is also a practice book. You get a lot closer to the numbers you are crunching; it even makes a better crunching sound than with these new-fangled electronic hand calculators. Next, read “It all adds up: The growth of Victor Comptometer Corporation.”
