[GreenKeys] LORENZ German Teletype Machines

[Don Robert House]

The machine is not ONE OF A KIND.    There are many of these machines 
all around the world.  One went for about $60.00 in Athens and it was 
in better shape.  I estimate the value of the Lorenz model 15s in the 
neighborhood of $60 - $100.  U.S.
