It took a heck of a long time and a lot of paper to get those tapes right.
Remember how we used to roll them around the fingers? Then hang them on a
peg on the wall? Yep.....dang I've been around a while.

These were not really pictures,but rather the "image" was made entirely by
characters on a "real"teletype machine keyboard.In the '60s
there were a number of these would show up at various times.Xmas themes
around the holiday,some pretty good images of Playboy centerfolds also
made
the rounds.
These had nothing to do with computers,the person making the image would
cut
a tape on his machine.The image could be sent without interuption.This was
real RTTY,no computers.
I would think a few old timers would still have some tapes in their
collection.
