The  TRIGONOMETRIC SCALES  are  divided  in  MINUTES  & SECONDS

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.
