Dick I  would need a closer  photo...one thing that  the 2b dies not like is 3/8  tape  WU used narrower a bit than 3/8!
 
One other thing  look inside and out  to see if 
there is western union  tags or?  not.
 
I see you also have one of the Morse  tape perforators ad 
there too! Neat!

Yeah, we have a good collection of "Kleins", as they were invariably called, and also the Boehme keying heads that read the Wheatstone two level tapes they produce.  We actually use these on the air at KPH.

As to the alleged 2B, it's long gone so we can't examine the unit itself.  What I can do is check back to the large photo print we scanned for the Web site photo and look for more clues.  But I'm advised from those who know that it's impossible or nearly so to confirm the unit as a 2B from external clues (except maybe for tape width).  If that's not true please let me know what I should look for in the photo.
