yes.... and many of them are really old with decaying power wire
insulation, oil soaked padding in the cases... not really safe without a little
rework!

The old wire service teletypes were like quads in that they both had
distinctive sounds and smells. The sounds were obvious, and I always assumed
the smell of the printers came from the heat and all the oil. Perhaps this
was not as evident if they were installed in an open area, but the ones that
I was around were located in their own rooms, so when you were in the room
with them, there was no escaping either the sound or the smell of the hot
machines.
