Model 211 "Candy Shop Model" manufactured circa 1908. The family of Bob Berryman attributes this cash register to the store owned by the famous YO Ranch in Mountain Home, Texas. The YO Ranch served as a de facto headquarters for the Texas Rangers, as the family that owns it has Texas Ranger history themselves. It is also the most well known Texas Longhorn cattle ranch in the world. Today the ranch serves as one of the many scenic hunting ranches allowing anybody to hunt exotic game species without the trip to Africa. Originally nickel plated, this register has taken on an attractive patina showing years of use. The register features a fleur-de-lis pattern on the front, back, and sides with a floral scroll design on top of the drawer. The face of the drawer features a stylized "National" with the pull handle being a raised portion of the "N". The drawer is comprised of one long compartment at the rear and four smaller compartments at the front. This model of register was built by National Cash Register Company as a more affordable version of their famous registers. It features a full brass construction with a hardwood base rather than the brass and marble configurations of other models. It was also made more affordable by not letting customers customize the register with the name of their business. Provenance: Charles Schreiner III Collection, Robert B.
