These are two
500 class registers on two different styles of bases. The 500
class registers came in a variety of styles, starting with one drawer
all the way down to nine drawers. Both of these bases are tiger
oak bases in different finishes. |

The model 4
register on the left side is the largest of the detail adder registers
ever made. It has 40 keys, 80 detail adder wheels, and 40 flags.
The model 30 on
the right hand side is National's earliest attempt at a candy-store size
register with a total adding mechanism. This means the register
recorded the amount of money tendered on one counter. |

The register on
the left is a wonderful Model 3 with the Patterson Pull and a rope rail.
This is a very early example of a detail adding cash register.
The model 211on
the right side is also a detail adding register, and was sold at a
discounted price because it did not have the more expensive options of a
marble till and glass top. These registers were not popular when
originally sold by National, so it makes them a scarce model to find
today. |

The model 47
two-drawer register on the left is commonly referred to as a bar or
saloon register, since it was ideally suited for two bartenders to
operate independently out of the same register.
The model 7 on
the right side is an example of a detail adder in the fleur de lis
pattern. Note the early time clock on the right side of the
register. |

This Model 3
woody in the clamshell pattern is a beautiful example of the wooden case
cash registers made by National. All National cash registers had
wood cases up until 1888, after such time the registers were made with
cast metal cases, however, wood cases could be special ordered as late
as 1910. This register has a personalized breastplate with the
original owner's name. |

The dolphin
pattern crank registers were only made in Berlin, Germany. The
more popular pattern, of course, is the empire pattern. Very few
of these registers in the dolphin pattern made it over to the United
States, and all of them were in the German currency. Most of the
registers such as this were destroyed during World War II, making very
few of these registers remaining, most likely less than a couple dozen. |

These two registers are
examples of the model 336, one in red brass and one in the nickel
finish. The HBAC Group restored both of these registers for a
candy store on Rehoboth Beach, DE, which has been in business for many
years. We custom made both the cabinets and the glass signs. |
