I think the photo where the 4th row was covered by the Wester Union front plate made me wrong deduce it was a 32, just 3 rows.

I see an 8-bit 1" tape and the reader with Manual-Start/Auto/Manual-Stop/Free.

 

The four-row keyboard means it is a 33 (7-bit ascii 110-baud) with 8-bit 1" paper tape  (I see eight holes).  This machine defined ascii did it not?  The three-row keyboard would be a model 32 (5-bit baudot) with the narrow (11/16 iirc) tape.

Apologies for the voice. Dictation error in my previous. “4 row” … became ‘borrow’…

I agree the paper tape is questionable. You can’t tell what the punch reader itself is could be the wrong paper it could be a hybrid machine that’s been upgraded transformed who the heck knows.

That said the paper tape looks 5 bit to me. It may be someone put the wrong tape in it.

Borrow keyboard would indicate a 33 to me. As opposed to the three row keyboard on the 32.

Isn’t that a 32 and not a 33, or am I looking cross-eyed?  Wouldn’t be the first time!
