System Rietz No. 23R slide rule, made in Lahr, Baden, Germany. According to the information supplied, this example is believed to date from the early 1920s, during the interwar period. An exact production year has not been established.\n\nAccording to the supplied information, this version combines a hardwood body with a celluloid surface. The slide rule bears the historic maker inscription “Albert Nestler A.-G. Lahr i\/B,” alongside the German markings D.R.Patent and D.R.G.M. “Lahr i\/B” refers to Lahr in Baden. These inscriptions contribute to its historical character but do not, on their own, establish an exact production year.\n\nComplete with a black sliding case, described by the seller as original, this instrument reflects the history of engineering and manual calculation. Its glass cursor, graduated scales and reference tables on the back make it an appealing addition for collectors of early scientific instruments and antique calculating technology.\n\nThe photos show signs of age and use, including noticeable wear to the black case. Operation and calculating accuracy have not been verified; no calibration or accuracy is guaranteed. Please examine the photos for the visible condition.\n\nStated dimensions: 30 × 4.5 × 2 cm.\nStated weight: 145 grams.\n\nOnly one example of this product is available. Tracked shipping is charged separately.\n","brand":"Albert Nestler A.-G.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59278550761736,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1056\/0336\/7176\/files\/12100.jpg?v=1793271772","url":"https:\/\/continentalvintage.com\/products\/albert-nestler-a-g-rekenliniaal-system-rietz-no-23r-met-etui","provider":"continentalvintage.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
