I don't have anything in the way of old equipment such as that or even
pictures, but I have some "historical" information. I started working
for IBM in 1967 in a marketing branch office in Chicago. I would
dutifully update my IBM sales manual, replacing pages and pitching the
old ones. Sometime in the 70's it occurred to me that I was throwing
away history, so I started keeping pages that had even a remote interest
to me. Equipment that was no longer marketed or serviced that someone
decided shouldn't be taking up room in the manual. I still have what I
started saving in a box "somewhere" in a closet. If anyone is really,
really interested in seeing something, let me know and when I have time,
I'll see if it's on a page I saved.

That looks like an IBM 3174 01L. I still have 4 of them running.
The tape drives are IBM 3420 Mod 6 (we still have 3 of them running). I =

The rack mounted unit, reminds me of the IBM 9370 (not running one of =
them).
Of course, the terminal is an IBM 3278 Model 2.
Boy, I can have my own vintage computer festival!
