A little late to the conversation, but I haven't had this Curta for long!

I had one, a very tidy early type 2 number 507441. I was slightly confused about the spring as it was floating around loose inside the machine. I ended up selling it on ebay, although I must admit I can't recall what happened to the spring. _________________ Lost on the far side of the world, where Curtas are seldom seen. |

The quietness of my new to me type 2 was a surprise compared to my type 1. I'd bet it has the spring in use. I'll confirm when I'm able and report back. |
