Completely missing on my side. And.. I always mix up numbers. I have
(several of each) Lorenz lo15 (model 15), Siemens t100, Siemens t68d, Lorenz
lo133, model 33, and model 35 (the greatest teleprinter in history).
I could swap something for a nice creed machine.
I suspect they're more common in the UK than elsewhere. They were used
by the Post Office
for the Telex service, for example.
They are less common over here than they were perhaps 30 years ago,
but not impossible to
find. I think one was up for sale for a few 10's of pounds a few weeks
ago (it did sell in case you
are wondering). Obviously these machines are normally 'collection
only' the sellers will not ship
them.
