Browsing through the excellent photographs on

However, there's one that has flummoxed me:

Errrm, what's "automatic ticket machine"y about that? :-))
Hmm. It looks like the sort of thing they used to have in cinemas.
There's several rolls of pre-printed tickets under the desk,
the operator presses a lever, and a ticket pops up out of a slot.
As you say, not exactly automatic, although maybe the date is
printed on it or something like that.
