[GreenKeys] Western Union 2B Parts Needed

Tue Nov 22 13:45:18 EST 2016

very true...   all the gummed stock for the most  part I  have found in 
machines is  like a rock stuck into a solid  puck

when do you anticipate making the next   run of   paper?
although the  2b  western union machines   uses    smaller  than 3/8  by a  
hair   ...   guides  can be   replaced  for   3/8

we have   one  3/8 machine  here

No it's not gummed.

It's better for longer  storage.

Gummed tape often glues together and becomes worthless when  stored under

humid condistions.

Richard,

from time to time our group of teleprinter  (teletype) collectors in 
Germany organize an order

for 3/8"  (9.5mm) strip tape paper from a roll paper company that still 
produces it  on demand.

Same paper machtches also German Siemens and Lorenz  machines.

Price is affordable, abt. 2 $ per roll as I recall from  last order.

Unfortunately last order of 500 rolls is now sold  out, bit I am sure the 
will be a new one

in the  future.

I  realize the parts and accessories listed below may be hard to find but  
the recent thread about the Model 11 rare birds prompts me write with  our 
needs.

As some may know, we recently received a donation of a  long desired 
Western Union (Teletype) 2B strip printer from a generous  member of this list.  
The intent is that it will be exhibited as a  stand in for the 2B that we see 
in the 1946 photo of the KPH operating  room.

Please see the attached photos.

The machine appears  to be in excellent, original shape.  But we are 
looking for the  following items:

Tape reel cover

3/8" paper tape (gummed  preferred but non-gummed would be great too)

Moistener/cutter.  I'm not sure what the real name for this tool is but it 
was used by the  operators to moisten the tape for sticking to the radiogram 
blank and  cutting the tape to the proper length.

All leads to any of these  admittedly scarce items will be gratefully 
received.

Regards,

RD
