    After having a near perfect Comptometer given to me (see it in another of my postings) I starting doing some online research and came across the website of Jay M. Goldman who has an absolutely amazing collection of antique office equipment. I won't include the website link in case it's considered promotion which is against the content guidelines, but you can easily find it via a search for Jay's name.

    Jay was kind enough to send me a high resolution photograph of one of his original comptometer oil bottles (see photo #1) and I flattened it out and cleaned it up using Photoshop so that I could print a label and attach it to my own little bottle of home-made comptometer oil!

    For a reference, the original label was 1.75" high, but you can print out any size you like from the two images I've included in this posting if you'd like to do the same. One image is slightly more sepia-toned than the other.
