[GreenKeys] Fwd: Western Union Teletype (Craigslist in Kansas City)

[Bill Horne]

Jack,

I received a photo that the owner said was "just like" the machine in 
question, so I asked for pictures of the real item. The owner told me it 
was used as a TDD, and I tried to emphasize that these machines have 
historical interest and could be placed in museums, etc.: since I'm a 
member of the Hearing/Speech impaired community, I also emphasized the 
need for such items in schools. I hope the owner will get the message 
that there's a very limited market for these.

I'll pass along any photos I get.

Bill
