A digital time counter from the 50s. It uses self-switching neon tubes with internal switching electrodes. It counts the pulses from light passing through a paper disk that is spun by a timing motor. The time base is selected by moving the light bulb over different holes. It is for sale at PurposefulSurplus.com
