[GreenKeys] Equipment available

[thomasekleinschmidt at yahoo.com]

Hi all! 

 

My goal, starting a few decades ago, is to preserve mechanical data
communication equipment and its technology history - mission accomplished! I
still take in strays. With obvious ties to the family company. I am a member
of the last generation to know my great grandfather E.E. Kleinschmidt. 

 

Some of my collection has probably just arrived at the AWA museum. Duncan
Brown and team has a truckload of things to be put on public display and
some to eventually demonstrate. I am thrilled that the next chapter in the
preservation process is underway. Many thanks to AWA volunteers:  Duncan,
Nancy, Jim, Felica and Joe. We had a packing and hauling party in my garage
this past Sunday and Monday. Fortunately, the literal heavy lifting of
equipment from the basement was completed a week ago. 

 

 

But wait there is more!! And quite a bit of it. AWA only took what they did
not already have in their museum. 

 

This is in no way a money making enterprise. We made road trips hundreds of
miles to pick up unique pieces over the years. I am looking for reasonable
offers, realizing that shipping is a major cost. Please take a look at the
list and pictures link below.

 

Here is my top of mind list:

 

Have a bunch of Kleinschmidt gear. Who would have thought? Hams really
horded all this old stuff brand independent.

perforator readers, Other KL desk top tape gear.  I small central office
reperforator. Perforator /readers that go in combination with page printer
desk set AN/ xxx 25. Also parts machines and more.

custom red paint.

Bunch of Model 14 & WU 2B tape machines, one table that holds 2 machines.

same.

Items not pictured are: Table & a 3 or 4 perforator readers for AN/xxx25,

symptoms of frame erasure and high bit error rate. 

 

A few items in group pictures are already gone.

 

Thanks for looking!
