I recently picked up a box called a "ADA 1600 Pet Printer Interface".
It's a box slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes with two cables
attached to it. One cable has a Centronics type connector on it and the
other has a small circuit board with both a male and female 24 position
card edge connectors on it. Is anyone familar with it or does anyone know
which model PET it's for?

I think that's an IEEE (HP-IB) to centronics adapter box. I remember
the PETS were famous for that IEEE interface for both disk drives and
printers. The same philosophy continued into the VIC and C=64 lines,
but in a modified serial format. Typical Commodore, just enough
different to be a pain . . . .
