Scales front? Standard (not maker’s) symbols for scales on front face e.g. A = X² (1-100) but § = generic symbol (signum sectiōnis) for any non-standard scale + scales between solidi / / are on the slide(s) whereas scales after vertical line | or after reversed solidus \ are on a straight or bevelled top or bottom side edge cm \ § / §,§ / § | 1:25
Scales back? Standard (not maker’s) symbols for scales on back face e.g. S = sine (5° to 90° & 85° to 0°) or sin(x) but § = generic symbol (signum sectiōnis) for any non-standard scale + scales between solidi / / are on the back of slide(s) but scales listed after / / - notation are on another surface e.g. back of stock or inside a lid
Cursor type? Basic description (incl. material) + no. of hairlines, etc on any cursor(s) or alternative to a cursor - e.g. a stylus metal/glass - 1 hairline

Wichmann” (stamp in well) - probably classroom training aid for anti-aircraft gunners - layout consists of two pairs (upper set 0 - 50 & lower set 0 - 15.8) of non-logarithmic independent root scales (no interaction) derived from a set of tables by German Peter Timpenfeld & first published in 1888​ - non-conventional use of a cursor purely for positional summing of the squared values

In-Out? MM-YYYY / MM-YYYY of the date added/left the collection or <YYYY if exact MM-YYYY no longer known <2010/
