Further comments One of the latest generations of special school slide rules. I have another one from 1959 (catalogue number 144) that is nearly identical with a few minor diferences:
  • It lacks the type number and "Made in Germany" on the slide. Instead the logo and type number can be found in the well.
  • The cursor is slightly different.
  • The old one has help information on the back side.
