The printer frame in the back looks VERY much like a Teletype model 19. The
keyboard in front is reminiscent of a model 15/19 keyboard, but has 4 rows, so it
can't be from a 5-bit teletype.
The model 19 (also 15) printer is a type-basket design (akin to a typewriter).
The pictured unit uses a type-box printhead like that of the model 28, but given the
4-row keyboard and the application, Cory likely has it right as a model 35 printer.
I think you'd have to see the decoding mechanics on the right side of the printer to
confirm 35 vs. 28.
