The SR came in a brown leather case. It is made of bamboo. The
sides are held together with a metal sheet. Its back side is
empty. HEMMI started a year code in 1950. NO CODE was found!
Behind the "SUN"-Logo is a carved-out 1_1/4" LINE - May be the
former(?)TEXT "Made in Occupied Japan" upset the Japanese user?
This dates the slide rule: Made just after WWII in 1946.
