Availability: 93 in stock

For sale is a reproduction of the WWII German Enigma machine instructions that was attached to the inside of the wooden upper lid.  These Enigma instructions are 7.8 inches wide and 5.5 inches tall.  While originals were made out of aluminum, this reproduction is made out of 0.020 thick Styrene.  There are several variations of the originals: some used four screws to hold the instructions in place, some six.  This reproduction doesn’t have any holes in it, so you can choose whether you want to use four or six screws.  Some instructions had a black border around the text, others did not.  Picture #6 shows the Enigma instructions I used as my guide.  There are even variations on how the Germans ended the last word of the first sentence!  In some of the pictures there may be the appearance of white dots in the blackness of the text:  this is lighting glancing off the gloss that was applied to the text to protect the text, give the text a relatively flat feel, and give the product a sheen.  I will be using a 9-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ easy fold mailer to ship the reproduction instructions, since an envelope could be bent and possibly damage the product.  The mailer is shown is picture #7. Shipping will be by USPS First Class; overseas orders will go out by USPS First Class International.  The weight of the instructions, mailer and protective bubble wrap is approximately five ounces.
