handle and contains useful tables and equations. The inner brass cylinder
slides into the axis like a telescope tube and the outer cylinder can move up
and down and turned round the axis. A single logarithmic scale 500 inch long
(12.7 meter) is wound spirally around the outer cylinder to enable calculations
to 4 or 5 place accuracy. It is marked Fuller Calculator Made in England.
The calculator comes in a dovetailed mahogany box with a
