    It seems to me that machines of this type were the subject of 
a thread in this list perhaps a year ago. I think I have a patent 
showing the mechanical arrangement. The typewriter to the left 
appears to be an Underwood Model 5. There is machinery under the 
table connecting the two machines.
    Please note regarding the picture for sale a "giclee" print 
is nothing other than an ink-jet computer print gussied up with a 
fancy name. Giclee means something like "spit" in French, however 
it can also have a somewhat vulgar connotation.
