What about software?
BCPL IBM mainframe portability package (original time frame). Common now,
not so common back in the day.
The kit was used with some efforts to port to minicomputers @ USL
Also got some Mathilda manuals from Aarhus

We were running the simulator which was in BCPL on a Multics system. The
visit by the Mathilda hardware was canceled a year after I was there.
Strictly speaking I don't own, but I have helped breathe life back into
some software; we have a working Multics BCPL compiler. You can run that
software....
