I have a museum Teletype (14) Bell System BR type bar tape printer all
cleaned up and working. Date inside cover is 1932 and it has the
financial pallets and KB. It's missing the cover/tape reel retainer for
the 3/8" tape and whatever reel accessories might have been in there.
Bulletin 1028 on page 10 only shows a couple style choices, but no
reference to 3/8 tape and page 18 cited in the footnote is missing. I
tried to see if a 9-1/4" tape cover from a Model 19 fits and it does
perfectly, so functionally/cosmetically that would work if I had an
extra. Like on the 19 I would believe some other parts to secure the
tape from unravelling uncontrollably might be needed. Not much space in
there. Any photos suggestions?
