After WWII my father who was Chief Engineer at Simmons Machine Tool Corporation in Albany, NY took a trip to Europe having something to do with the rebuilding effort. He returned with a Curta calculator and an agreement to import and distribute the calculator in the US.

I have a brochure in English with the following information included in the "Supplied by:" area on the back:
Simmons-Curta Business Machines
50 East 42nd Street, New York 17, N.Y.

Does anyone know any more details about Simmon's working with Curta?
