[GreenKeys] Teletype Model 15 Restoration

[E.]

On YouTube, if you watch the CBS News Special Report on the JFK assassination (about 45 minuted long), you can see one gentleman in the background, at the Teletypes, using a ruler to cleanly tear off the paper as it was being printed.  Kind’a interesting stuff.
