Researching this cash register is on my list of things to do. For now it sits in the Toggery.
Here is a photo taken last summer of the Museum. It was build in 1900 and was occupied as a County Courthouse until 1976. A new Courthouse was built next door. In 1977 it became the County Historical Museum.
This is where you can find me from May 1st to September 30..except Sunday and Monday..those are my days off, so the museum is closed.
Have a good week everyone:)
Great looking cash register, and interesting to hear about your museum.
ReplyDeleteYOU are NOT vintage or old! I love the old cash registers....they have such character. Something to be said for pride in workmanship on those.
ReplyDeleteNow that's what you call National Vintage.
ReplyDeleteVery cool, looks turn of the century or early 1900's..:-)
ReplyDeleteDon't you wish they actually made things like that nowadays? Beautiful.

Now that cash register is really cool! It looks so heavy and well built. I like your job too!
ReplyDeleteI have a friend uptown who owns an antique and hardware store. He uses the cash register that is similar. The IRS came in on him because he uses it because it doesn't keep written records. He still uses it for the change and has it for show among the antiques things he sells.
ReplyDeleteYou had a built-in advantage for this challenge! Neat job you have there -and you chose some wonderful objects to share -- thanks! I remember seeing those cash registers when I was a kid (I'm vintage myself).
ReplyDeleteFantastic photographs. I am greeting
ReplyDeleteThe cash register looks great. I wonder if it had ever been used.
