Description from the seller
Beautiful and highly decorative antique electric adding machine from the American brand Burroughs. This imposing office device was manufactured in the United States and dates from the early 20th century.
The device still has its original metal base, glass viewing window, keyboard and mechanical parts. The typical industrial look with black lacquer, gold lettering and visible mechanics makes this piece particularly decorative for an interior, loft, office or collection of industrial and technical objects.
With various markings and serial numbers, including “Made in U.S.A.” and original Burroughs plates. The device shows nice authentic signs of use and patina appropriate to its age.
Operation not tested. Sold as decorative collectible object.
Condition: Good vintage condition with signs of use, oxidation and wear appropriate to age and use. View the photos carefully for an accurate impression of the condition.
