The one with the head in a yoke in my case is a 6053 aka Dasher D2. I
have two of them. Last I knew, both work, aside from one key from the
one nicely wrapped up and sitting in my garage.
Looks like these:

We could talk. Contact me off list.

yes ET! the one in the with the head in the
yoke although anything
blue and pretty would be better than nothing! Our Eclipse is not as
grand as some photos ,,, and the tape drive is a small side by side
reel unit that fits in the single rack here is a photo of ours....

had it for years need manuals etc and maybe some sales lit. or
scans of advertising material to display with it... but yea... it
cries out to have a terminal with it!

I'd bet that he's referring to the Data General Dasher D200 terminal.
I have one:

But perhaps a better picture:

The D200 isn't always on ebay, but usually they show up mildly frequently
there and seem to go around $200 to $250.
There was another common terminal on eclipse systems. I'm not sure if it
was
in the Dasher series, but I believe it was called a "5821". I have one of
these as well.

Lastly, a common combination system console (terminal)/printer that is VERY
cool looking was the Dasher TP1 and TP2. Mine is a TP1.
