[GreenKeys] "Miniature Teletype"

[Alf Fisher]

It looks like a Roneo-Vickers or Gestetner duplicator to me.

I have noticed that people say teletype when what they really mean is 
teletypewriter or teleprinter.
The word Teletype is/was a registered trademark of the Teletype Corporation 
as we all know -hmm!
In a similar way, people say Hoover when they mean vacuum cleaner.
