Well, I would disagree about the DPs - they could easily be NE-2s in 
holders. The size is an issue - the characters do seem large - it might be 
due to some crude 1970's photo editing - why would the electronic ticker be 
obscured by the tape tickers?

I suspect that this was a marketing photo showing how the electronic ticker 
was so much better than rows of paper tape (especially seeing as how the 
one she's reading has obviously recently jammed!), and that the image I 
posted is in fact a montage...
