A Burroughs F5100 Adding Machine left behind in an abandoned auto parts manufacturer and distributor
EDIT: According to @MrNick it's a posting machine, not an adding machine. I believe I saw it refered to as an adding machine on ebay. Sorry for the mix up

The Abandoned R.J. Loock & Co. Auto Parts in Baltimore, Maryland | Abandoned America

From 1913 to 2001, R.J. Loock & Co. not only distributed parts they patented and created them and also operated a retail storefront in Baltimore. Then they closed, leaving behind a time capsule of decades of vintage auto paraphernalia.

Once upon a time, I was going to collect Burroughs Adding Machines. I have exactly one. When my storage locker was robbed, the thieves left it behind. Can't say I blame them. They weigh a ton.

@noyes I'm sorry your storage locker was robbed! If it weren't for that part sucking it would be a pretty funny story 😕
