Hi folks:

Once again we are running a promo to help provide the funding needed to 
keep qth.net/qsl.net lists active.

Last year, John Bartholomew donated a quantity of genuine Teletype Tape 
Moisteners to be given away to people who make a nice donation to 
qth.net/qsl.net -- and yes, there are still some of the tape gizmos available!

It's a pretty good deal: help qth.net/qsl.net and get a nice Teletype 
collectible!  These devices were used to wet the gummed tape that was used 
in tape printers, for telegram and similar uses.  The finger piece is the 
cutter for cutting the tape at the edge of the page.  See some pics at:

Heck, even if you don't have a tape printer it's still a pretty cool little 
gizmo from the early days.

Donation info is below.

thanks,

gil
