BRUNSVIGA MS

1924 s/n 32377 Reversible hand-operated four-species machine with pinwheels for English currency according to DRP 387 605, 416 040, 408 459

The MS is very similar to the BRUNSVIGA S (Arithmotyp) of 1908. It does not have, however, a backtransfer mechanism. A company-internal list indicates that between 1924 and 1925, only 4 MS were delivered. Such statements must however be regarded critically.
