Dunleith Designs and Antiques offers three featured items, however, the most intriguing of the three is the gorgeous American antique cash register made by the National Cash Register Company. Although the history of this specific cash register is not known, the National Cash Register Company has had a long and interesting history. The National Cash Register Company was originally named the National Manufacturing Company and it was under this name that the first mechanical cash register was invented and sold in 1879. It was not until later, in 1884, that the company was sold and renamed the National Cash Register Company.

It was under this new name that many significant members of the NCRC began to shape American history. Two of the members, Charles F. Kettering and Edward A. Deeds, went on to found an engineering division of General Motors. Kettering is also accredited with the design for the first cash register powered by an electric motor in 1906. Another member, Thomas J. Watson, Sr., focused on inspiring the NCRC sales force by creating the motto "THINK!" which was erected on signs throughout the factory buildings, sales offices, and club rooms in the mid-1890s. This catch phrase quickly gained popularity and later became the motto for the popular company IBM. There is no doubt that this American antique has had a long and interesting history.

This particular antique cash register is from the early 20th century and is therefore likely to be one of Kettering's designs. Its stunning relief decoration and its luscious wood accents would add beauty and interest to any room. Yet, perhaps its most exciting feature is that it is still in working order. It is clear that it is a valuable antique that would be the desire of any history buff.
