[GreenKeys] Gummed Telegram tape wanted

[Sam Hallas]

I've had a request from our good friend Alan Hobbs, G8GOJ. He writes:

"Wanted a source of 3/8" wide paper tape as used on the Creed Model 3 
and Creed Model 47 (Post Office Number 11) Telegram teleprinters, and 
the Teletype model 14 strip printer. The reels are 8" in diameter with a 
2" diameter mounting hole. Any information would be gratefully received."

I've seen sources of plain paper tape come up from time to time, but not 
as far as recall of the gummed variety. Can anybody help? It would be 
preferable if the source were in the UK or Europe, but if this stuff is 
so scarce, I guess Alan wouldn't mind paying shipping from the US or 
elsewhere.

I'll pass any replies on to him as he isn't on the Net at the moment. 
Alternatively drop me a private e-mail and I'll give you his postal 
address and phone number.

Cheers,

Sam Hallas, G8EXV
