50 YEARS THAT CHANGED THE PICTURE

The need for a reliable printing telegraph instrument that would provide a typed record of the message for both sender and receiver brought the company now known as the Teletype Corporation into the picture in 1907. From the halting performance of the original page printer to the smooth 100 words per minute of today's precision equipment has been a major step in communications.

But today Teletype equipment is often far more than a communication instrument. It is a basic element in production control systems... its ability to transmit and reproduce text and punched tape is harnessed to office automation... it provides a "conveyor system" for channeling comples raw data to a computing center thousands of miles away—and getting the answers back ina twinkling.

Indeed, Teletype machines have made many of the dreams of 1907 a daily part of today's business world. And the horizons widen daily as new dreams occupy our engineers and keep our laboratories humming.

If you would like a copy of our booklet, "The ABC's of Teletype Equipment," write to Teletype Corporation, Dept. F9, 4100 Fullerton Avenue, Chicago 39, Illinois.
