The Bell Punch Analyser combines an adding machine with a lab counter. It was intended to be use in combination with Bell Punch's Automacheckit ticketing machine which generated a paper strip with carbon copies of all the tickets that are issued. Such a strip can be fed through the metal guide on top of the machine. On the adder you would enter the ticket price, and then increment one of the five counters depending on the type of ticket. The latter action also activates a feeder that advances the strip to the next ticket.
