[GreenKeys] Another question for old Bell System guys

[Jim Haynes]

The date on the book is November, 1940.

There is a lot of other odd stuff in there, like 130V DC motors - 
obviously for the central office; a character counter in a separate
box, a motor control relay, bell on blank, and some things I can't
recognize.  Also the crank out the front on the range finder for
test board use.

The tape handling mechanism for 2" wide tape seems to have two of
the typical Model 14 narrow platens spaced apart so they engage the
tape at the edges.  Hence printing has to be on one or both edges of
the tape, not anywhere in the middle; and I would guess that it is
on only one edge of the tape.  The character set for type pallets
is the fraction set or the communication set.

This could of course be for a Bell System customer and not for internal
Bell System use.
