Don, Gil, Jim, et al,

I'll make this to the list as there might be someone else interested and no 
one needs two copies of the same email. :-)

I found the docs that I thought I had on the Western Union Type 100 Series.  
Turned out to be a total of 26 pages instead of only 4.  My source are copies, 
possibly even copies of copies.  Actually three separate documents, one 
covers general maintenance, one covers lubrication and one covers principles of 
operation.  The originals, except for one, appear to have been cut on stencils 
instead of typeset.  They aren't anything like what Teletype typically put out, 
but should be useful.  Certainly better than nothing.  But all mechanical, no 
schematics or wiring diagrams.  I'd guess that they were prepared for the 
people who did the routine maintenance on the machines, not the people who 
installed them.

I scanned the source pages, straightened some of them and cleaned up the 
clutter, offset the text to leave a binding edge, etc.  Price of a reprint is 
$10.00 shipped CONUS (Media Mail).
