The other day I spotted a model 28KSR on The Lucy Show (episode entitled Lucy the Disc Jockey).  Usually; Teletypes are only static backdrops
in shows, but they mentioned the Teletype twice, it had a small part in the show, and they had a sound effect for it, although I doubt the machine
was actually running.  Below is a link to a YouTube video I found of the episode.  The Teletype scenes are at 15:37 and 21:57

Below is another link I may never have posted, perhaps the BEST example of a Teletype in a TV show, a person shown typing on a Model 15.
Once again, although their are Teletype sounds, I don't think the machine shown is actually being operated.

Finally; below is the link to my Google Collections page, with the Teletypes in Film and TV list and photos, and two other Teletype galleries.  See
the information after the link for tips on navigating the pages.

I do not like the way Google uses symbols instead of captions to navigate, and options like enlarge, download, etc..  To view the photos, click on
the collection, and then click View album.  To enlarge a photo, click on it.  In this mode, you can view the filename, which may have some
applicable information, by clicking on the lower case letter i, in the upper right corner.  To download the image, click on the down arrow in the upper 
right corner.  To go back to the preview page, click the left button in the upper left corner.  You also view the photos as a slideshow, by clicking on 
the left and right arrows in the middle of the screen, once you enlarged a photo.

Finally; send any other TV or film Teletype sightings to my attention, which will be added to the list when it is updated.
