Juha,
Thanks for the pictures of your great find of M11 machines!! Also
thanks for the Collections Online link - I had not seen that before!
The M11 was designed as a small, compact, tape printer that operated at
50wpm and was typically used for local message service, such as in
hotels and other businesses. There was a receive-only version with a
glass top that was designed for stock ticker service. This was one of
the first start-stop, serial, 5-bit machines. (In the early 1920s, most
printing telegraphs [including the Morkrum M12] were used on
synchronous, multiplexed systems.)
There is an article in "Journal of the Western Society of Engineers" vol
XXVI, March 1921
"The Development of the Printing Telegraph", by J. O. Carr (chief
engineer, Morkrum Co.) that you can find on Google Books. The first
part of the article is on the history of the printing telegraph, but on
p131, he starts talking about Morkrum's newest unit the M11 and gives
some good description of it. You can get to the article at:
https://books.google.com/books?id=Z0wyAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA124&lpg=PA124&dq=Wheatst
one+Mallet+Perforator&source=bl&ots=nnb_QW2imO&sig=uKKDfCs0oKCT9dGvnBNvI-cCE
iE&hl=en&sa=X&ei=cDyLVO__GtKcygSR5ICQAQ&ved=0CCIQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Wheatsto
ne%20Mallet%20Perforator&f=false
though this will put you into a section of the article on the Wheatstone
Perforator. Just scroll down to p 131 for the M11.
There is a pdf of the parts list Bulletin on the M11, Bul 1014,
available on the Internet somewhere, dated Jun, 1927, so they were still
in use then. The "Morkrum" label dates your machines as pre 1925
(when Morkrum and Kleinschmidt combined).
Besides the air-ground use of the M11, the Krums also experimented with
ground-based radioteletype over a distance of almost 100 miles. I have a
pdf of a 1922 article from "Radio News" on the air to ground experiment
with the M11 that I got from Jim Haynes, if you are interested.
Good luck with your new find and have fun!
