The stages in the development of British operator-controlled sorting machines are described, together with an outline description of the functioning of these machines. The natural progression to the production of a multi-selection automatic sorting machine, which included principles proven in the operator-controlled machine, is covered. The latest development, the convertible letter sorting machine, and the reasons for it are briefly explained.
