I had a quick look ... just stumbled on the C-Itoh
page.
I saw that you do not have a picture of the C-Itoh 101 (VT101 clone).
IIRC, I have one complete in nice shape (in the previous not yet sold home).
Next time I'm there I will take it along and make a few pictures for your
site.
I also have a few C-Itohs - models 101 and 101e. The 101 looks like a
VT100, the 101e reminds me of a Wyse-50 with softer edges.
We always liked those at work - we had a lot of them and a lot of real
DEC terminals.
One mildly confusing thing was that they used a 1/4" jack for the
keyboard, like a VT100, but was not compatible. Occasionally, users
would move terminals around and get keyboards mixed up and call us
because their terminal was "dead".
Solid clones, though.
