Ok,
I have an old Anita 1000 calculator which I think dates from around
1967. It is all discrete components mounted on a number of seperate
boards. One board has a funny spidery type component on it and I don't
know what it is. You can see a picture here:

It's a bit difficult to see, but it looks like a ferrite torroid with
windings on it. Such things were used as pulse transformers, oscillator
coils, or logic gates.
