It was a rather awkward design. I own a few with and without plastics

betting a lot of them were either broken, or owners got too annoyed with
the plastic and chassis coming apart that they decided to dispense with it.

Yes, with a bunch of other cards. However, the
plastics are all
stripped off the chassis and gone, and it's in my garage - in
London...
I've noticed a number of DEC and IBM items on eBay with the plastics missing. Is
there some particular reason that plastics are often stripped off of these items?
