DESCRIPTION OF ITEM
: THIS IS A VINTAGE STENOGRAPH MACHINE
-- THIS IS THE STENOGRAPH REPORTER MODEL
-- MADE BY STENOGRAPH MACHINES, INC. IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
--
THE STENOTYPE KEYBOARD HAS FAR FEWER KEYS THAN A CONVENTIONAL ALPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD. MULTIPLE KEYS ARE PRESSED SIMULTANEOUSLY (KNOWN AS "CHORDING" OR "STROKING") TO SPELL OUT WHOLE SYLLABLES, WORDS, AND PHRASES WITH A SINGLE HAND MOTION. THIS SYSTEM MAKES REAL-TIME TRANSCRIPTION PRACTICAL FOR COURT REPORTING AND LIVE CLOSED CAPTIONING. BECAUSE THE KEYBOARD DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL THE LETTERS OF THE ENGLISH ALPHABET, LETTER COMBINATIONS ARE SUBSTITUTED FOR THE MISSING LETTERS
-- CONDITION: THIS STENOGRAPH REPORTER IS A VINTAGE ITEM AND ALTHOUGH THIS ITEM WAS WELL CARED FOR BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER, IT HAS SOME CONDITION ISSUES AS COULD BE EXPECTED IN ITEMS OF THIS AGE INCLUDING SCRATCHES, CHIPS IN THE PAINT, BENT DATA PLATE ON BACK, MARKS/CHIPS/SCUFFS IN FRONT AND SIDES, WEAR TO THE FEET, WEAR ON KEYS, APPEARS TO WORK, ALL MECHANISMS FEEL SMOOTH. THE CASE HAS WEAR AS EXPECTED WITH TAPE REPAIRS, HEAVY TARNISH ON METAL PARTS, CHIPS IN THE PAINT BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE AND THE LEATHER HANDLE IS IN POOR CONDITION AS SHOWN.
