Frama

Frama is a Swiss company that took the lead in introducing computer vended postage. Machines first appeared in Switzerland in 1976 and gradually spread through Europe. At first, only a few fixed values were available corresponding to major postage rates of the time.

The rather plain early design is immediately recognizable. These have evolved into underprinted designs and then multicolor designs. There have been commemorative issues for stamp shows and other events.
