Hi Fiona,

I think Nantwich Museum http://nantwichmuseum.org.uk/ has one – it looks very familiar from a talk I went to recently by Elliot Goodger the museum manager there.

Many thanks,
Lowri

Subject: Burrough's Office Counting Machine

Hi all,

We have this counting machine in our collection and I was wondering if anyone else has the same one or a similar model? I believe it is c.1960s/70s. It is about the size of a typewriter and would have required an old 3 pin plug lead to operate. Unfortunately we do not have the lead to check if it is still in working order.

We have had an enquiry into these machines and the person would be keen to know more or speak with anyone who may have operated one of these.

Thanks.

All the best,

Fiona
