Jon,

That's nice to see. I always wondered what was in that thing.

Our high school had one of these in the seventies, and the poor computer students had to use it, pretending it was a computer. It had an optical card reader that would read hand-punched cards for programming rudimentary things.

Later we got a PDP-11. I blame that for my fall from grace. (OK, it was really the university's decSystem10 that caused my downfall.)

I stumbled onto this link for a teardown of a 1969 Monroe/Compucorp
Nixie Calculator in my email from EDN.  Apparently, Monroe
predates Compucorp; one of the boards in this Monroe-labeled calculator
has a Compucorp label.
