Thanks, Jakob. I think the one my father used was more like the images below so it's probably just a later model that he had. (see attached images).

I must remember to ask my mother (who is still alive - my father passed away in 1977) if she still has the machine somewhere. Possibly not as it could well have belonged to the people for whom he worked.

This, by the way, was probably in the late '50s or, at a stretch, 1960.
