Hi!
Recently my grandfather passed away. I was cleaning some stuff and found this. I did not know what it was so i did some research.
I do not know how it works, but the mechanism seems complex and amazing.
I found the serial number: 11084 and it is a type "1".
I do not know what to do with it or if its worth something.

You have found a valuable calculator that is unique in its compact size and computing power!

Here is a quick reference guide (click on the individual sections on the left or right side to read the contents): Your CURTA calculator



Your Curta Type 1 was manufactured in 1951 (serial number11084)... and is worth a few hundred dollars.

More information and countless pictures can be found on my web-site curta.li

Cool
