We've just been contacted by a film company who are interested in hiring
a Hollerith D11 - anyone in the UK happen to have one or know where
there is one?
We (as in the computer museum side of things) don't have one, and I
gather that the Park Trust don't think that they own one either.
Anyone have one in private hands or knows of a museum that owns one?
cheers

Jules,
I do believe the Haus zur Geschichte der IBM Datenverarbeitung in
Sindelfingen, Germany, has one. At least one of the curators wrote a
paper several years ago that made a convincing argument that the D11 was a
full blown computer.
Anyway, copntact information is here:

At one point, the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum had one,
according to a paper at
http://www.temple.edu/tempress/chapters/1625_ch1.pdf
The museum's home page is http://www.ushmm.org/
Their D11 is:
USHMM COLLECTION (1990.48.1)
USHMM # 9048-1
