The Curator of the Computing Collection at the (UK) Science Museum is
coming down to see it in May to see my second ICT1301 to give me a
provisional decision on whether they want to take it. If they don't,
I have found someone as mad as me, who would like to buy it, but he
want me to give him a price. My question is, how much is it worth? I
don't want to ask too much but I don't want to find something similar
is sold a couple of months later for ten times as much. I have two
bracketing values, that I bought it for 150 GBP in 1977, and that it
was sold new for 247,000 GBP in 1962, both figures plus inflation of
course. That is a somewhat wide range, and must be reduced by the
fact it is not assembled and will probably need many months work to
get it into working condition, but even as a static display it is
quite impressive. Does anyone know of any experts who could come down
and value such an unusual thing? Probably none have been sold since I
bought mine so it would have to be based on other brands or models.
