The picture of the "Teletype" scroll logo apparently got stripped out of 
the text. I've enclosed it as an attachment this time.

Morkrum was using the "Teletype" scroll logo on the M11 in the early 1920s:



The Morkrum-Kleinschmidt Co. was formed on 29 Dec 1924 and continued
using the Teletype scroll logo. The M-K name was shortened to Teletype
Corp. in late 1928.

Enclosed is an ad from Railway Magazine of 6 Oct 1928, that shows the
Teletype scroll logo at the top and the M-K name at the bottom.
