At one time the Baker-Dunninger Slate was a common prop but you don’t see many of them these days as most add-a-number effects are done with small pads or calculators rather than large slates. There have been many versions released by different dealers. The first addition or Add-A-Number slate was created by American Mentalist Joseph Dunninger c. 1926 and this version was a variation by Al Baker c. 1929 and it became known as the Baker-Dunninger Slate.
