[GreenKeys] GPO Teleprinter by Creed 1

[Alf Fisher]

Eugene,

They are probably quite rare over there hence a good one will attract a high price but over here they are of limited appeal and not so desirable. 
Today there has been one sold on eBay for £36.00 after 5 bids and another one went a couple of weeks ago for £131.00 after 15 bids but it did include a rather nice test box with FSK oscillator and character generator.

Regarding your googling link, I think the numbers Creed 1, Creed 2 and Creed 3 (the ID plate), merely relate to the photographs of the Creed model 7B.
It is a very nice example of an early machine and as well as Dave’s observations, it has an answer back drum.

Thank you for sharing.

73,
Alf

Well the model plate says it’s a 7B not a “2”.  I guess a collector would pay £1k (about 1.5k$) for a model 2 but I think for a model 7 £250 would be tops….

It is in nice condition, and it is an early model with no range finder and an early pattern magnet…

I came across this web page while googling. I thought it might interest some folks here.
