Seek Telelectric Service Manual
By Barbara Patrick

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I have a Telectric 2068 patented in January of 1897.  I have
a blueprint of the magnets for the keys, "redrawn especially for
the Vestal Press by Daniel L. Schacher".  I am trying to find any
other information I can on the machine.

Is there a manual or anyone who can service this type of unit?
It is a family treasure and I would love to restore it.  Thanks
for your help.

 [ According to historians Bob & Ginny Billings, the name of the
 [ firm was Tel-Electric Company.  "Telelectric", without the hyphen,
 [ was later applied to the 65-note model, and "Telektra" was the
 [ rare 88-note model.  A 1912 Tel-Electric advert is reproduced at
