Hi,
For those of ya'll out there into the really big iron,
I have a few pieces of Univac stuff available:
First is a complete Univac model 1710 key punch machine,
including a manual with schematics etc. I do not know
if it actually works, and would recommend it be checked
out before powering up as it has several motors in it. This is
way too large to ship, though, so if you're interested
you would need to pick it up at my house in central NC.
I can provide digital images of the unit upon request.
Second is a Sperry Univac punched card reader. This
is a desktop-unit, (20"x15"x12") so should be UPS shippable.
I don't have any docs. on it. or any cabling (it has a
"big green connector" on the back). I've taken digital
images already and can provide them upon request.
Third is a Sperry Univac CRT terminal, if there's any
interest in something like this let me know and I'll
get more info. on it.
Fourth is a keyboard from a Univac key punch machine
(probably either a 1610 or 1710). I didn't "trophy"
this myself (as per earlier discussion), the rest of the
machine was already gone. Still, it may be an
interesting relic for those of you who are interested
in 1960's computer stuff.
Those of you who've seen my previous postings know
I'm primarily interested in very early electronic
calculator and certain early microcomputer stuff.
I have a "want" list on my web page, and would consider
trades for some of the items on my list. Recognizing
that not everybody has a stash of old calculators,
I'd consider monetary offers as well, but, please,
from the U.S. only.
Thanks,
Alex Knight
