 Using measuringworth.com calculators,  16s 6d in 1907 would be worth, in 
2008:

£65.04 using the retail price index
£78.88 using the GDP deflator
£339.21 using the average earnings
£401.61 using the per capita GDP
£563.26 using the share of GDP

 I wonder what it would cost a US or UK factory to 'crank out' similar 
machines, today
