It is indeed a Mergenthaler Linotype machine. I ran and maintained several while in college. That one is old, probably from the 20s or 30s. It was many years before a retrofit Star Typesetter add-on was available in the 60s which read 6-level tape. Another manufacturer, Harris Intertype, made a similar machine.Geoff, K6TFZ
 
=============================================

I wonder what movie this was from. I am assuming it is a Linotype machine - it definitely isn't a Teletype....
