Hi John!

I was just about to put a request out for a Model 15 typing unit!

I just had, was was a beautiful Bell System version, dumped on my front 
porch by an agent of "the Destroyer of Worlds", United Parcel Service, 
which managed, as only they can, to break the copy glass and shatter the 
cast iron typing unit in three places, leaving the case relatively 
"intact".  It just made me sick!  As I told the guy I needed it shipped 
FedEx Ground, and he took it to one of those "Photo and Shipping Places, 
and told them FedEx, who then arbitrarily decided to not ship as 
requested, and chose UPS, who dropped it off every truck and shipping 
platform from New York to Michigan!

Well, while typing my response someone beat me to it, I'm not having any 
luck at all am I?

Well GreenKeyers, if there is anyone else out there with a Model 15, or 
a spare typing unit from one, at reasonable price, I am in desperate 
need of one...again.

Thanks!
Bob
