Made specifically for shippers, merchants and salesmen in the cotton, woollen and textile trades, this Fowlers Textile Calculator Short Scale Type calculator was manufactured in Manchester between 1920 and 1940.

This particular example is double sided, having a fixed table of WEFTS, CLOTHS & REEDS on the reverse.

In very good condition, with clean scales and a chip free glass faces, both the dial and pointer rotate smoothly and it also comes in its original brown leather case ,which is in very good condition with 'Fowlers CALCULATOR' impressed on the strap.

Measuring 68mm in diameter and weighing just over 160 grams in its case, it's also accompanied by a modern copy of 40 page booklet titled 'Instructions for the use of The Fowler Textile Calculator', and a general marketing leaflet for other types.

Please study the photos as they are part of the description, and I will be happy to answer any questions if I can.
