Setright ticket dispenser

Setright ticket dispenser operated by a conductor or guard for issuing bus tickets from a blank paper roll.. A set of concentric dials on the top is used to set the value and levers can set different fares (such as "Adult" or "Child") and other vital information (such as "Inbound" or "Outbound"). The machine is entirely manually powered and requires no external power or batteries, although electric power packs were available for use in one-person operated buses. To print a ticket, the operator released a small trigger on the base of the case and rotates the crank handle by one turn for each ticket. These actions are easily carried out with one hand. Multiple tickets are quickly printed by simply turning the crank once for each
