[GreenKeys] [External] New York Times Wire Room - 1942

[eric]

It's at https://www.loc.gov/item/2017837863/ without the Shorpy logo 
plastered on it, and in a range of resolutions. In the highest (120 MB 
tiff) you can read a lot of the text on all the front row of machines.

There are many, many more, too!
