Use the CCD camera, but run the video through some post processing to make it look like it was printed on scratchy 16 mm film from the Old Days. For further pseudo-realism, hire some actors dressed in 1970s costume with hairstyles to match.
On a more serious note, I suspect that making a 1970s glass tty replica will soon be impractical due to the lack of plain B/W CRT manufacturing.
I have found a paper tape reader at a reasonable price that uses modern electronics. However, it has no moving parts and so relies upon the user to tug the tape. There are still sources of unpunched paper tape reels, but there aren't any new punches available and used punches cost around US$1,000. Punch card equipment is even harder to locate.
