Observations (nits)
BK23 is just the keyboard model.
That's not a Teletype table, which is probably why the keyboard is removed from the base.
With no pictures of it with the cover removed, had to judge the condition. With the keyboard removed there's a nice gap for critters to get in.

A self-described "geezer" in Ohio has posted a Teletype model BK23JX on Craigslist for $100. He doesn't want to ship and it's a 12-hour drive each way from where I am.

I have no experience, but want to start. Does it look complete, like it can be restored, or is this just for parts? Is this a good model? Would it be worth the drive?
