Pretty rough shape for that kind of dough. I wonder if that's the one that sold a while back...where the guy pulled it out of an auto repair shop?

Same guy as yesterday.  And he's watching GH, as he added the following to this listing, which I mentioned yesterday in the other thread:

Early-Issue Dot-Matrix Style IBM Label:  This early production run Industrial SSK has IBM's dot matrix style label, which was used before they switched over to a laser printer label.  Most Industrial SSK's I've seen online have been of the later production run with the laser printer label.

I should be getting a commission on this... :D

Wonder how many more he's got stashed away.

Cool, but not nearly as cool as my SSK that I painted gray.
