I decided for the good of mankind to share one of my "secret" sources.
These guys have a pretty amazing inventory - including thousands of manuals
(for rent, even!). I just had a peek and they've got PDP 8 manuals and lots
lots more. A quick scan showed lots of computer thingies, and this is where
the Sun stuff I just wrote about comes from, too. I expect those
building/repairing old computers will find things here - they have lots of
valves, relays, delay lines, etc. etc. I've bought things from them before,
and can vouch for their honesty.
So, without further ado...

Do you guys/gals have any idea how hard it is to share a (almost sacred)
hunting ground?
Drop me a private note if you find something there - that's my claimed
spotters fee :)
