Because I totally forgot what it was called, and unfortunately did not get
to spend as much time at that exhibit as I had wished and so really have
no other details on it (well, other than that it is of East German
origin).
Sorry :(
If you want, I can put you in touch with the two brothers that brought the
exhibit and they can fill you in. They had a rather nice little
collection that they brought from their technology museum in Leipzig.
