OT: Looking for information on MoReCo Coilmaster

[Robert Groh]

Received a small pile of old ham goodies this week and have been having
fun sorting and organizing. One of the things I got is a MoReCo
Coilmaster. Cute little device I've seen over the years, always had a
hankering to own and now I have one!  I don't have a lot of use for
one, you understand, but at least I can play around with it. It is
minus a coil spring, a washer and a cotter pin but I can easily find those at the hardware store. Otherwise it looks
complete and ready to rock and roll. I even found a copy of the 2-page
(!) manual on the internet plus a little bit on how to operate it. 

I
was wondering if anyone on the list might have any more information -
both on the Coilmaster itself and on the company (Morris Register
Company, Council Bluffs, Iowa) that made it. I found one reference that
indicated the company was in operation back in the mid-1920's and I
have reason to believe that it was still going in the mid-1970s.

So would love to hear anything anyone might remember and can supply.

Waiting eagerly -

Bob Groh, WA2CKY
