[can-talk] Historic printing equipment

Central TAFE has relocated its Print Training Unit from its Wembley
Campus to a new development at Northbridge in Western Australia. 
 
The College had a collection of old printing equipment at Wembley. 
Some of that collection has been moved to the new building, but we have
not been able to relocate all the items.
 
The College has made efforts to find new homes for those pieces that
couldn't be relocated but a Monotype keyboard and a heavy black proofing
press remain. 
 
Pictures can be seen on the Web at

The items are free to a good home but must be removed at the expense of
the recipients.  Items will be allocated on a "first come, first served"
basis and the following conditions apply:
 
The equipment must be taken 'as is, where is'.   Central TAFE offers no
warranty on the condition of the goods.  No guarantees can be made as to
whether equipment is in working order as it has not been in use for some
years and the College has no additional parts for these items.  Central
TAFE will not admit any claims for rebates resulting from any error in
description or quantity Removal and use of the equipment is at
recipients' own risk 

If any institution is interested in one or more of these items, or
would like
to view them, I can be contacted by mobile on 0409 960 260 or work
phone 08 9427 1672. 
 
I can also be contacted by email on margaret.fowler at central.wa.edu.au
 
Arrangements to remove the equipment must be made immediately as the
College vacates the premises at the end of this week.  Access to the
site is very limited after 24 July. 
 
As these are heavy items, professional removal may need to be arranged
by recipients, but if this presents a difficulty, please contact me to
discuss. 
   
 
Kind regards
Margaret Fowler
