				| WOW ! I think the word wow describes that Curta Picture well. Amazing , Wonderful and Beautiful Type I and It’s very old.
 Maybe 1948 or so. Photographer knows his stuff !
 Thank You !

				| Thank you! Well - as I already said in another post - the assignment of the first production numbers is not possible exactly - corresponding documents of Contina AG are missing (except this list, which was made later by an employee of Contina AG).
 
 Here is a complete gallery of this early Curta: Die Buchhalterin
 (use the arrows on the top right to navigate, as with all other galleries on my site)

				| Rare view of a Curta calculator in everyday work 
 
   
 ... a surveyor at the Federal Office of Topography (swisstopo) calculating with the help of a Curta Type 2 and a slide rule
 
 (early sixties - location: Seftigenstrasse 264, Wabern - source: swisstopo Bildsammlung).
