I received a tip about a Flexowriter Selectadata
system available
for rescue in southeast Wisconsin.
The unit is a Flexowriter model 2201 with the model 2314 Selectadata
and the metal table. From what I've googled, these are 12 cps, 7-bit
devices. I'll receive pictures later today. It sounds like it's intact,
with full docs, under dust covers, perhaps much like this one:

I plan to give the owner an honest estimation of its rarity and value,
and let them decide if they'd like me to have it. I'm somewhat tempted
to keep it, but the angel on the other shoulder tells me to stop
collecting more stuff.
Anyone care to give some advice?
These have all but disappeared. I'd say grab it, quickly!
