[SEL] OT Linotype Parts Available

[Rick Rowlands]

The foundry that I work at just bought all of the cast iron parts from a 
model 5 Linotype machine.  The castings are all in good shape and I am 
putting the word out that I have parts in case anyone with a model 5 is 
missing parts or has a broken part.  The parts will be available for a 
couple of weeks before they are fed into the furnace and melted down.
