TWIMC,

Who says "My machines"? That is my Model 12 in the photo. Now residing  
sans table in Oceanside, CA.

Now the machine that is in the upper left corner identified as Model 10
we suspect is actually a Model 13.  Model 10 was a Western Electric
page printer, which supposedly had a fixed carriage and moving type
basket.  The printer in the picture looks more like a Model 12, as
it appears to have a moving paper platen.  Supposedly the Bell System
made up some sets consisting of the punched tape equipment from the
Model 10 with the Model 10 printer replaced by a Model 12, and this
was called Model 13.  The reason was that the Model 10 printer was
excessively costly to manufacture.
