Here is a link to a Craigslist ad for a 15 in Ohio:
<https://chillicothe.craigslist.org/atq/d/bainbridge-barn-find-antique-teletype/7388680541.html>
One keycap is missing, the glass is cracked, the platen crank is
missing, it looks really grungy. The biggest concern I would have is
that it is a "barn find". Barns have mice. Mice like to build nests in
whatever is around.
Poster is asking $100 but is asking for offers. This listing has been
around for a while.
Usual disclaimers apply: Not mine. Have no idea who this is. Etc...
73,
Gary
