Canada Post Money Order Franking Machine, made by the Addressograph Farrington Co. in Mississauga, with original serial number, in very good operating condition and does not appear to be missing any parts. Appears to have been last used in 1991, and comes with its original shipping box labeled "Outside Register" addressed to the Postmaster at RPO 35 in Dartmouth NS. A great item for the postal ephemera collector, or someone wanting to reconstitute a museum, as there are probably not many of these lying around. (Image)
