Ah those were the days. I was in my late teens. One day a new catalog came in the mail and the hot new item was drum memory mechanisms for $15 apiece. Man I wish I could have bought one of those. The last one I saw on eBay was way high. I do have a couple of core planes I found at hamfests. One of them must be a last-generation model as it's a whopping 1kB x 8 and only about 6" x 3.5".
