Ok, that's weird.  In my town, no less.

LOL, I laughed when I looked at this. I bought it! It's in my collection! and I kept the awesome old box too!

It works beautifully, but someone removed the Spacebar at one time, so I have to do the trick to get it back in.

Wonderful keyboard, it took quite a bit of cleaning, but it came out great.

Here's a pic of it all cleaned up:

It stayed in Arizona its whole life, so it's very rust free and in great shape.
