The Teletype Corp. originally had a museum covering the early days of 
telegraphy through the research and development of their various 
products. Unfortunately, as the company grew, the space that the Museum 
consumed was needed for office space and the Museum was closed in the 
late 1970s, with all artifacts put into storage. Luckily, photographs of 
the Museum artifacts had been taken before it was dismantled, and 
long-time Teletype Corp. engineer Ransom Slayton used these photos to 
make a video tour of the Museum as it was in the 1970s. The surviving 
copy of this video recording was in poor condition, but the original 
slides used to make the video were available.
The Electronic Communications Museum of the Antique Wireless Association 
has re-mastered this presentation. Non AI image processing has been used 
to improve the shadow detail in the original slides and non-generative 
AI audio processing was used to improve the sound track and remove the 
background music.
