Livermore Data Systems, Model B
BUT, this one is labelled:
General Design, Inc.
and is serial #0043
I assume that this is rebadged, but it could be that another company made 
identical modems.
It's in EXCELLENT cosmetic condition.
Model number is not labelled anywhere on it, but the A model did not have 
a duplex switch, and the C model had originate/answer.


Like:

and

slightly fewer scratches)


Uses old-style power cord (not included, nor known pinout)

I had one a few years ago, that sold for an obscene amount ($300), in 
spite of having some case damage.  This one looks EXCELLENT.  Before I 
sell this, I should contact that buyer, and the others who were seriously 
interested.
