Hi All
I went to school for the blind in the 1960s! We learned basic mathamatics or
sums on a type of plastic tray into which metal numbers were inserted in to
holes like a grid. There was a tray on the side of the frame to hold these
metal numbers. I know there were also metal trays. I recall the plastic
ones being brown and I think the tray was a light colour. Now I am looking
for photographs of these along with photographs of a braille handframe and
stylus, a stainsby and a perkins brailler. Wonder if someone like George on
list can assist here or someone else who is sighted and might know wht I am
talking about. Thanks in advance.Again I am happy for people to e-mail me
off list.
Eleanor
