Jaap Scherphuis | Addimat adding machine and the Schnellrechner @jaapsch2 | Uploaded August 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
The Addimat adding machine, also called the Addipresto, was patented by Sergio Lanza in 1956 and made in Italy from then until the late 1960s or early 1970s. The Schnellrechner, also called the Swift Handy calculator, is a clone made in Hong Kong.
