132 Electronic calculator
| Description: |
This is an early desktop electronic calculator made by the Friden company in 1965. It was very expensive and seems clunky by today’s standards, but was sleek, advanced technology for the time. The owner’s manual promised that using the calculator would be “like stepping into a new world of computing power” and that “through the magic of electronics, the features…are advanced to a level never before attained.” |
