Some new machines added to the fleet

I followed up an advert found in Rad Com, the journal for the Radio Society of Great Britain - I thought I had already missed the chance having not opened the magazine for a few days after it arrived.

But it seems I was lucky.

Both machines were shown as running by the seller, and while not printing due to needing a good service, everything sounds good.

The T100 is very nice, and appears to havespent some of it's life in the Foreign Service, and is complete with FSG.

The Creed 444 is also in very good condition, and looks to have been used on RTTY circuits from Harare.

The bonus of two Siemens test boxes is also very useful!

I am in discussion with the seller regarding some more machines - perhaps there will me more to show soon.

Hi Sean,
wonderful....

especially the T00 with German keyboard. It has the rare keys: answer back lock and print = off.
It may have been used by a government agency, armed forces or police, as these machines often had this feature.

Congratulations. :thumbup:

I collected some more machines today from the same location.

Going to be a busy winter :)

Managed to drag these out of the truck today.

Picture of a rather scruffy Creed Model 3x - Anyone have a service manual?

Hi Sean,
I did not found any info about a Creed 3 or 3x anywhere on the net, only Creed 7b (from 1931). What is the exact designation of the device ? Thank you.

Franz,

das ist ein Streifenschreiber (Telegramm-Maschine).

Danke, habe zwar etliche Bilder jetzt dazu gefunden, aber keine Dokus etc.

Vielleicht kann es Sean mal hier versuchen, nachfragen kann man ja mal und kostet nix ;-)

There is almost no information for the Creed Model 3x - but yes, it was for Telegram service.

It's gone into stores for now - I have too many machines in the service department at the moment
