I got this from a guy that was trying to empty his parents' estate. He didn't know anything about it and said it didn't work... but it does. It will ring up a sale and open the drawer just like it's supposed to. Works great. I haven't taken it apart to try to get the receipt mechanism to work, and the original walnut finish is in Fair+ condition. The provenance we have been able to establish indicates that this was used at a pharmacy in Tulsa, OK until the early '70s.
I know this sample isn't as valuable as the older models, especially those in excellent condition; but, for what I paid the guy, I got a steal.

Posted 2 new, better pics.
I have the same model as you do, but the finish is much better on the one you have. Do you have, or know what numbered keys go with it?
Thanks-Michelle
