[GreenKeys] Take My Equipment Please

[Paul Heller]

Hi Lou,

The Antique Wireless Association (AWA) is not far from you and might want something. They are a museum and should have first pick (in my opinion) if they have room to display it. Their teletype exhibit is the finest in the county as far as I know, and they show the equipment in operation and volunteers talk about it, so it is educational. But they are space bound and might not have room.

About museums (I am not talking about the AWA here), I once donated something to the computer history museum (they asked me for it) and it disappeared into their reserves never to be seen again.  The big museums have huge hidden collections. If possible your stuff needs to be displayed and used, or at least loved and cared for by an individual, and not thrown into a museum basement or back room if possible. But in the end, sitting hidden in a museum back room is better than the dump!

I am at least interested in the excl cond 2B strip printer, the gummed back tape and the BSPs. Maybe the DXD200 and model 15 if it has a keyboard. And perhaps more but will let others weigh in first.   

I’ve never heard of a 33RO. I guess that is basically a printer for a computer?

I’ve been playing with teletype machines since the early 70’s and have collected a large number of machines and parts.  I have far too much to move, and would like to find a new home for my equipment.  Everything listed below is available free to interested parties who can come and get it.
