The Keaton Music Typewriter is really cool too. I've had an eBay alert for one for years, but they come up for sale so rarely and always go for well over $1000. Here's a site with some pics:

In the 1960s I did some work for a publisher using a regular electric typewriter that had been outfitted to do music. I think it was a IBM Selectric. Don't see anything about that online though.
