==================================================================
It came in a heavy-used leather case - but the aluminum slide rule
was in good conditions.  With its 32 scales it belongs to the most
»loaded« slide rules!

This slide rule has the typical  "Pickett-Yellow" body:  The "-ES"
in the model number means  "Eye-Saver";  Models with the "-T"-Ext.
(for "Traditional") have a white body.
