[GreenKeys] 28KSR hamfest find

[Nick England]

There I was walking among the tailgaters at the Shelby NC hamfest on
Friday, when what to my wondering eyes should appear but a floor model
28KSR.
Didn't look too bad, so just out of curiosity (I don't need another 28), I
reached in and spun the motor around - a little old-grease resistance at
first but then the typing unit began cycling and the hammer whacking away
OK (Naahh, I don't need another 28) . Hmm, hold down the keyboard unlock
and hit a key and the code bars are clicking and the keyboard cycle is
working nicely (Really, I don't need another 28) .
Then the tailgater came over and said "How about $25?"
Sooo....Here it is being unloaded at home yesterday -

And when I opened up the lower compartment I found a lagniappe of two thick
notebooks of 28 manuals and a bag full of nylon speed change gears. Sweet!

By the way, a friend gave me a dozen or so rolls of canary paper - let me
know if you have been looking - Limit 1 or 2 per customer, but at least
you'll have some traditional canary for show and tell. As usual, priority
goes to those who have been helpful to other greenkeyers, and/or have an
amusing/interesting reason. You pay postage from 27514 or I'll deliver to
Lawrenceville GA hamfest.
