Well, the 1050, 2740 and 2741 were not even vaguely similar to the 3277. I 
don't recall a Selectric golf ball that didn't have dual case.

I don't remember the terminal # but it had APL support with the IBM Selectric 
APL ball(circa '69). Cold winter day with mittens and scarfs the APL prof 
fumbled the ball onto the linoleum floor and it shattered. We ordered three for 
backup and found the last one during remodeling in '03.
