A 10″ slide rule made of molded plastic. It is perhaps one of the last models produced by Pickett in the special “eyesaver” format. The slide is grooved and has molded grips on its ends. The flat cursor is made of plastic; it slides over the plastic without the need of grooves or ridges. This slide rule comes in a black leather case and a cardboard box. Scales: Front: LL1 -0.01, K, A, B, S, ST, T, C, D, DI, LL1+0.01. Back: LL2-0.1, LL3-0.1, DF, CF, CIF, L, CI , C, D, LL2+0.1, LL3+1.0. Markings: Pickett Microline 140.
