Larry K2JIA didn't have room for this Telegraph Test Set, model 100A,
manufactured by Teletype Corp. for the Bell System, so it's up for grabs:

I don't have a way to test it, but these things are practically bombproof
and the motor and armature assembly work well. Apparently, it's set up for
100 WPM, but there are two other sets of gears for it: 75 WPM and 60 WPM.
The only "problem" with this test set a the dent in the window frame over
the armature, which needs to be straightened so it won't interfere with
rotation of the brush assemblies.
This is a compact test set, as you can tell by the relative size of the AC
cord:

It's offered for $50 plus shipping. As I'm not near the computer(s) all day,
the first person to answer in the affirmative will be the new owner.
