Do you have one of those? I'm thinking of creating a 'history of computing devices' display in my room. I have a slide rule and abacus, but someday will have an original calculator, a computer the size of a small house, and one of those primitive cypher encoder things. Just kidding!

No, it represented about half a month's take home pay. I saw ads in 'Analog Science Fiction Magazine', it was actually 1963, I think.
