You have uncovered a Morse Perforator that I believe was a Kleinschmidt
design but late production as indicated by the Teletype name plate on the
cover.

The second machine that appears to be a variable-speed morse transmitter, a
companion to the perforator. I have never seen the likes of the transmitter
before, but judging from the tape path and the narrow wheel, plus the
interesting contact set on the lower left deck, I don't think I am far off.

Dick Dillman, W6AWO, has a manual on the perforator. Seems to me the most
common CW Tape Transmitters were made by Boeheme. I think Jim Haynes or Tom
Kleinschmidt will end up being the master info resources for both items.
