In 1934 the 5A or"black box" ticker was introduced. In the crash of 1929 earlier machines were not able to keep up with the high volume . The black box was considerably faster at a maximum output of 500 characters per minute !
The 5a was still being used as late as 1966 at the Pacfic Stock Exchange.
This machine that we have was used in the 50's in New York at a illegal gambleing house to receive sporting results. The FBI closed them down in 1961! $1500 SOLD
