Very interesting looking.  I can't quite make out what is going on in that rectangular area where all the wires terminate, labeled 0-15 and A-R.  Are there diodes there?  Anything on the other side of that board?

The large cores with all the wires are remisniscent of core rope ROM.   If so, I wonder if it's AGC (Lincoln Labs) style, EL-X1 style, or a scheme different from either of those two.
