Johann Jacob Sauter, calculating machine, 1796. Brass, steel, wood. Including a handwritten manual in leather binding (plus swedish translation) and additional tools – to be kept in the drawer. Germany. Via Museum of Gothenburg. Source

Engraved text: “Maschine / ohne nachzudenken / geschwind und sicher / damit rechnen zu können / von Sauter in Esslingen” | Machine to count on fast and safe without thinking by Sauter in Esslingen

Serveral early attempts at calculating machines were made by clock or watchmakers, who were already skilled in using toothed gear wheels. Sauter was a watchmaker. This machine can produce each number up to 1000 Millions.

Milton Glaser, poster “Mozart sneezes”, 1983. For Mostly Mozart Festival, New York. Via Sappi McCoy

“I thought it would be amusing to do a comic strip of Mozart playing the piano; in particular, if in the moment he felt compelled to sneeze. A thin idea, perhaps, but it served as the basis for the design”. Quote Glaser, via thefoxisblack
