I got just another jewel to my collection, IBM 1620 Model I (G level). Machine has all
internals intact, but table top and the typewriter are missing (probably doorway was too
narrow back then, parts removed and forgotten somewhere on the journey... )
That table top can be made again, but I would need that right model typewriter. Anyone
have a spare..?
Also I have another problem with it, memory is suffering wire corrosion (like these all
does). So this can be a looooong shot, but if someone have a functional memory or just
core array, I'm interested to buy or swap it to something.
Photos can be found my blog, link below.
Thaaaaanks!

Hi Folks,
I have an original IBM model B computer controlled typewriter witha lot
of spares
and maintenance manuals available for sale ortrade. This stuff is
impossible to find. As used on the IBM 1620,DEC PDP-1
and many other
computers of the era. Useful if you'remaintaining one of those
or want to
build a
replica/simulator.
Respond to me directly as I'm not a member of this list.
Thanks, Erik
