My Faber-Castell slide rule collection


My Faber-Castell slide rule collection
End of 2005 I ran on Ebay into a old slide rule (A Unique Universal 1). Because I used a slide rule when I was still at high school, it raised some old memories and I bought it. The slide rule virus bit me an I started buying more and more. Soon I found out that there were too many different slide rules to chose from and that I had to make a choice. Rather randomly I chose to start collecting Faber-Castell slide rules. This website documents the slide rules I have collected and the information that I have gathered. I currently own 233 slide rules. Part of my slide rule collection is shown on this website.
My collection of Faber-Castell slide rules (184 specimens of which 165 different models) The other slide rules in my collection (34 different ones) Faber-Castell patents (30 different ones) Faber-Castell boxes and cases (60 different ones) Faber-Castell manuals, catalogues, Rechenstab Briefen and books (23 different ones) Non Faber-Castell documents Links to other interesting places on the Web, especially with Faber-Castell slide rules A unique gross list of 346 known types of Faber-Castell slide rules How to date a Faber-Castell slide rule?
