I have one, restored, was running when stored but not powered up in
some considerable time.
Serial number unknown; IIRC correctly the tag with the serial number
was missing so may remain unknown.
Obtained from a collector called Erik in... Netherlands I think, circa
2004... who got it from John Bradatanu... IIRC I traded a TU56, a
pdp-8/L, and some other bits, for the 8/S and a working VT05.. see pic
on this page:

Pics on that page are interesting, as it's the only time around 90% of
the DEC portion of the Corestore collection has all been lined up and
visible in the same place at the same time!
Oh 8/m has been discussed in front panel talk... here's a nice pic of
mine: http://www.corestore.org/pdp8m-1.jpg

If somebody were to try to make a "complete" list, it would make sense to
provide variable levels of anonymity, such as name but not contact info,
state but no name, email but no other contact, etc. If designed well, that
could be managed by a full information form in which it is easy, and
acknowledged to be acceptable, to fill in only items that are intended to be
public.
Prob'ly some people would be more willing to discuss what they have IFF they
aren't opening themselves to theft risk, and/or a deluge of "I'd like to
buy".
NOTE: I do not currently have ANY PDP stuff, so I am only speculating about
what others would like.

'No greater love hath a man than he lay down his life for his brother.
Not for millions, not for glory, not for fame.
For one person, in the dark, where no one will ever know or see.'
I know of 17 PDP-8/S systems, including four at the
RICM.
Not everyone wants their collections to be public information but:
