Enigma Machine

Close-up of the plugboard on the front of the Enigma machine. There are 26 pairs of headphone-style sockets, set in the German QWERTZ keyboard layout, and each pair of sockets is arranged vertically. The letter of the alphabet is written to the left of each pair, and the corresponding number to the right e.g. D 4, R 18 and Z 26. Wires are plugged into several of the sockets.
