Had one of these clackety-clackety printing beauties on my desk until a few years ago, when I (stupidly) sold it off due to lack of use. Boy, do I regret that! :^(

Thx & happy holidays,

I have one that I would consider to sell but:

* it has no display option
* it does not print correctly.

I think I have the matching cloth or vinyl cover for it but no carrying case, manual, etc.

I suppose it needs some mechanical work (or at least lubrication) of the printing mechanism (for which I have not found time yet).

The machine is based in Vienna, Austria.

As it is probably impossible to find an Option 001 display board I thought recreating the display (maybe with modern means) might be an interesting electronics project. Kees van Sanden has a close-up picture but I have not found a full schematic or description of the protocol.

I can make some pictures if required but not before Christmas.

I don't really know what to ask for it, so any opinions on what might be a fair price are welcome.
