Juha,

Yes, that was one of your Morkrum Model 11s that I attached to show the 
Teletype scroll logo.

The M11 was first manufactured in 1921. In December 1924, Morkrum merged 
with the Kleinschmidt Electric Company. So your M11 machines with that 
say "Morkrum" on them would have been made between 1921 and 1924.
