Step back into the era before computers with this vintage Monroe adding machine, an essential tool of accountants, bankers, and office professionals from the 1930s–1950s. Monroe was one of the most respected names in mechanical calculators, known for their rugged build, precision engineering, and reliability.
• Maker: Monroe Calculating Machine Company
• Era: Mid-20th century (c.1930s–50s)
• Design: Rows of numbered keys with classic cream and black Bakelite caps and distinctive red function keys
• Finish: Dark paint with bold Monroe logo
• Condition: Untested, offered as-is. Keys depress, carriage and register intact. Expected age wear consistent with vintage office equipment.
These machines were the backbone of commerce — crunching numbers in factories, banks, and government offices long before the dawn of electronic calculators. Today, they are prized by industrial design collectors, office museum curators, and mid-century décor enthusiasts for their sculptural quality and mechanical ingenuity.
