Visited an older collector recently, and in his shed
he has a strange thing, labeled CDC, that somehow looks like a drum

The controller that goes with is? a transistor based? monster on countless small
pluginboards.
If you get back over there, try to find CDC ID tags on the drum and controller.
There would normally be a model number badge somewhere on the outside.
Being that there was a 350 paper tape reader, I'm guessing its for one of their
smaller systems,
maybe an early model 1700
