Finished in its original olive green enamel over heavy-gauge metal, the machine features brass-toned engraved number wheels, raised cream and green levers, and a hand-crank mechanism used to imprint dollar and cents amounts while simultaneously protecting checks against alteration (“Locked Protection,” as marked on the base). The sculptural silhouette, exposed mechanics, and period typography make it especially appealing as a decorative object for offices, libraries, loft interiors, and design-forward retail or hospitality spaces.
Manufactured by Paymaster Corp., this model exemplifies the utilitarian yet elegant engineering of mid-20th-century business machines. Whether styled as a statement object or collected for its historical significance, it brings authentic vintage character and visual weight.
Estimated Date: Circa 1950s
