National Cash Register (NCR)

Abacuses, computers and miniaturization devices that can reproduce the entire Bible on a small card are on display in this two-story ribbed frame-and-concrete building, along with various examples of man's latest techniques for keeping track of himself. Most of the equipment demonstrates the handling and feeding back of information in straightforward business operations. But a good deal of it is designed to entertain as well as instruct.

NCR exterior

Although the formal name was the National Cash Register pavilion, it is generally known by the shorter name of NCR, which the company had recently adopted (CD #13 Set 65 #45)
