[GreenKeys] Determining the age of a Model 15-KSR

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

Corey!   Hopefully there is someone  watching  that can  help with this!

I asked that  a while  back too  to see if  someone had a  timeline of   
serial numbers    back  when  we  got our   UPI machine for the  museum.  did 
not  seem  to  be  (at that time)  someone that held that information. 
 
Most other  groups that   collect  various  cars  and machinery  general 
strive to   establish a timeline of   production..  this needs to be  done  
for teletype machines  too.
 
Even if the master record is gone....  there  will always   be  something  
with a serial # that  will at least    give an  age marker  to groups of  
serial numbers  I  would  think. Somehow this information needs to be compiled.

Greetings GreenKeys list readers,

I've been  lurking on the list for a few years, and was wondering if its 
possible to  determine
the manufacture year of a Model 15-KSR by serial #. I realize  that they 
were produced for 33 years which
is incredible. I picked one up  today to add to my collection, and it's in 
such amazing
shape that I can't  help believe it is either a later model, or could be 
older and simply  
received little to no use.  I haven't seen (or noticed) anyone  discuss 
this, and a search through
my email was fruitless. Any help would  be  appreciated.

Corey
