[GreenKeys] Model 33 In Newberg, Oregon

[George B. Hutchison]

To All Interested - - -

The Model 33 ASR that became available to the world from Oregon was 
delivered to the Museum of Communications in Seattle last night.

The machine is in beautiful condition, As close to new as one can 
get.

Steve will not have much fun fixing it up are there seems to be 
nothing to do to it, other than find a paper spindle, which was 
missing, and find a solution for the print hammer cover.

The Print Hammer Cover looks nice, but the "fingernail" test shows it 
to have turned to goo, as most of the original hammer covers have 
done.

Teletype must not have had an engineer well-versed in plastics, hence 
the problem with the 33 hammer covers, the 28/35 typing perf/reperf 
tape print hammers, and the lousy foam they used for sound deadening 
in the late production equipment.

Oh well....
