More downsizing, this is my collection of service info from NCR, National Cash Register. Not really computers I suppose, but where else to advertise it?
This is two shelves of books with repair instructions, exploded diagrams plus lots of other info on the range of NCR cash registers and adding/accounting machines from the 40's and 50's, some earlier, some later. It was unexpected just how complex the accounting machines were, keeping sub-totals on various different products, printing them all out. I have a Burroughs Sensimatic and wish I had a manual for it!
The snag is that the UK was never a good market for NCR, Burroughs had it to itself. Therefore I have never been able to buy any of the machines in the books. In fact this collection came from Australia.
Price £400, won't get the chance again! This is heavy, possibly near 80kg, so postage isn't really on unless really really desperate.
