new addition

There will be a typecast tomorrow.  For now, I'm wondering about the year, given the model 5 and SN 810544 /5.
Thanks to my yard-saling friend for finding this and texting me.

  1. That's a striking machine. What do the circular stickers/labels on the top of the case say?

  4. Hm, flattopped? It looks a bit different from mine. Maybe it's a later model 5? I can't find the serial number in the database under model 5. But I did find it under model 6. Explains the model, but not the /5 and the decal... Mystery!!

    1. Model 5 came in both the round and flat shape. Round-up coming.
