My friend Lele sent me this pic, but she didn't have a source. I love it all the same. Any idea?

Update: The picture was taken by Alex Brown. Thanks, guys!

Aaron Adding Machines: Anachrofantastic

aaroncalc3.jpg

Andy Aaron makes and sells these fantastic anachronistic adding machines made from wood, real thunky switches, and old-school LED displays, along with general helpings of brass. The styles transverse the last couple of centuries. Some—like my favorite above—look like issued equipment for WWI-era submarine operators, while others look like telegraph machines.

I don't know what Aaron charges for one of his adding machines, but he's got his email and phone number on the site. I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you.
