Hello!
A few months ago I began collecting vintage keyboards through my work (E-Waste recycling). Using knowledge gained from lurking here and perusing r/mk I discovered a few keepers. Right now my collection at home consists of:
- Pair of IBM model M 1391401's ('87, '88),
- 1397952 '93 Model M which is in the process of being restored/modified,
- LK201 and an AEKII each in process of being restored. (the restoration work is pretty on/off though)
At work I use a Cherry ML 4400USB and a CNF 1804 External Numeric Keypad (simplified white ALPS).
Also waiting on parts for an ortholinear build to ship. Some of the boards aren't really in good enough shape that I feel like taking pics but here's the ones that are: home (https://imgur.com/a/TamUx), work (https://imgur.com/a/hplz8)

Welcome to Geekhack!
Nice job - nice finds :)
Rules about classifieds posting are a bit strict, but in olden times some people interpreted the old rules a bit loosely, and all sorts of things went on. But if you can get 2 months membership and 25 posts or whatever it is now, I'm sure people will be more than interested in buying some of your finds!
That Alps keypad looks very interesting.
