time lapse counter -- when work was art

When I saw this at surplus, I had to have it. Fortunately, it was only $5. Much of the equipment I buy at surplus is intended for repurposing, but I plan to keep this exactly as it is.

It was built with point to point wiring. The workmanship is impeccable. Wires are neatly arranged and tied into bundles. Components are arranged in rows. The front panel is green with a red back layer. The legends are carved into the front of the panel, exposing the red back layer.

It was in perfect condition, until I decided to straighten out a bent switch handle and broke it off :-(
