The Oxford 100 was first developed as the Gillette GPA in 1974 by Sinclair for Gillette who were looking to enter the consumer electronics market. However this version was short-lived and the Sinclair Oxford series of calculators was released the following year. The Sinclair Oxford range of calculators was first released in March 1975 and included the 100, 200, and 300 models with LED displays. Later models featured a vacuum fluorescent display (VFD). Other models including the 150, Scientific, and Universal were also released after the initial release.

The Oxford 200 model was a four-function calculator with added memory and percentage functions. It cost £21.55 in May 1975. This example in our collection the later version of this calculator as it has an eight-digit green VFD. It is powered by a PP3 battery or mains supply.

This calculator was very kindly donated by Francis Hookham.
