   The early telegraph-line powered tickers were called "self-winding".
But the page printer has too much rotating machinery for that.

This guy:

does ticker repair and sells parts.

Stock tickers of the tape printer under a glass dome type are very
expensive collectables, in the $15K to $22K range.
