Notes: "From 1874 until 1880, Albert Ott and Gottlieb Coradi were partners in a business named Mathematical-Mechanical Institute Ott & Coradi, in Kempten, Bavaria. This planimeter would have been made during that time, before Coradi left to form his own company in Zurich, Switzerland in 1880. This is a Type 8, serial number 102."
