Not sure if these are Vintage Blacks...

I think it's this keyboard...

Yep, that's a Wyse-like board. Neat! Should be Vintage Blacks.

Do you think those retail related legends are dyesub or pad printed?

These key caps are usually ABS. So I don't think they would be dye sublimated.

Sorry I meant double shot.  I know the main legend may be double shot - not sure if it's possible to do the rest in the same mold.  Not my area of expertise.

I would assume the main legends are SP doubleshot - with pad printed secondary colors.

Circuit City? Holy **** what a throw back. Really cool find.

A friend of mine in Colorado just got one of these, and he confirms they do indeed have Cherry blacks and double-shot keys. Sweet! I'd get one myself if I thought I could stay married.

Whats the verdict on the Circuit City legends? Pad printed add-ons?

I asked CO friend, and he says:

Secondary legends are pad-printed, but in FOUR different colors---red, purple, green, blue. Pretty cool.

I don't think I've ever seen a KB with more than two 2ndary colours (though you guys prob. have). If they'd accept, say, $60, seems like a pretty good deal to me for a rare NIB MK!

If you're concerned about wearing out pad-printing, remember, dirt is abrasive—so it's always a good idea to wash your hands before you sit down to type. Seems like a pretty civilized habit anyway, doesn't it? Typing with clean hands, I have yet to wear off any pad-printing. I've often thought of starting a topic on the idea here, but I figured I'd just get ridiculed.  :?|
