The item is a Western Union Model 103 teletypewriter.  Built for them 
under contract with the Underwood Company.  It is part of a family of 
teletypewriters that WUT had built to fit into their "mailbox" 
cabinets.  They used a Model 101, 102, and 103 as well as the Model 
15 in the same enclosures.

The maintenance manuals for the 101,102, and 103 are quite small and 
sometimes difficult to read and understand.  At least one of these 
designs uses 6 magnets to operate.

Jim Haynes knows more about these than most on this list (including me).

Regards,
Don
