vintage Gamewell Fire Station Alarm Punching paper tape register & take up reel For Sale

HELLO .... thanks for looking

.

PLEASE NOTE ............ this item is selling AS-IS ....... i will describe it to the best of my ability , but nearly every item i sell is from 50 to 100 years old and will show some sign of wear

.

.

THIS LISTING ........ i found this at a recent estate sale in Indiana ....... there are 2 items in this box lot ...... first is the punch register ..... it has a lot of brass gears , but appears to be missing a reel on the outside of the cast iron base .... ( just by looking at a few others )...... it looks complete otherwise , but i can not find a name on the instrument itself ..... it is quite heavy

. also is a take up reel for the used tape ..... it has a plaque that says Gamewell Newton Mass. on it and a serial number #122114 .... it also seems to be complete and also has a heavy cast iron base ..... looking at it from the bottom , the spring appears to be good and the gears are also brass ...... sadly now limits the number of pictures i am able to use ....... sigh

. i have no way to check this out , so i must sell it as-is ....... but i think i am starting it at a price low enough to attract a few firefighter collectors offers ...... i saw a take up reel alone do $150.00 on an sale recently

this provided a print out as to the location of the emergency and back up on where to send the fire engines

in any event ...... here is a complete set , but perhaps missing one reel and whatever else might be missing ........ but there is and it may just be a real bargain tonight
