Description
Styled
for today - and priced for today.
This smart new Burroughs for only... $125.
Your first glance will tell you that this Burroughs adding machine
has style and class to lend a modern note to store or office. New
square keys add sureness to the touch, wings to the fingers; the machine
is pleasing in contour add color; the over-all appearance is an invitation
to get work done.
Then look again...more closely... and note that this is no "cut-down"
model but a full-size, full-value Burroughs with a totaling capacity
of 939,993.99. It's tops for rugged durability and smooth operation.
How much for this Burroughs beauty! Just $125*... two or three pennies
a day spread over its long, useful life. You can buy it on easy terms,
too-a small amount down, low monthly payments.
Other Burroughs adding machines styled for today and priced for today
include models with electric operation, direct subtraction, various
totaling capacities. Call the nearest Burroughs office. Ask your Burroughs
representative for a demonstration.
Burroughs Adding Machine Co., Detroit 32, Mich.
Because
it's built with a "memory," here's a calculator that does
for you what a calculator should do. The all electric Burroughs Calculator
with Memory Dials gives you instantaneous answers in one register,
and automatically accumulates those answers in a second register (the
Memory Dials) - for grand totals or net results. There's no rehandling
of figures ...no chance for pencil and paper errors.
But that's not all. This new Burroughs calculator has the distinctive
advantage of combining this answer - saving feature with the day in,
day out advantages of a simplified, instant - action keyboard. The
gadgets are gone! Every key is "live" and every key stroke
counts.
Finally, this truly extraordinary calculator has a very ordinary
price tag. It's as easy to buy as it is to operate - just call your
Burroughs man. Or write to Burroughs Corporation, Detroit, Mich.
