White Alps board with Japanese sublegends $20 + shipping

At least I think they're Japanese.  Sublegends look pad printed.  Main legends may be doubleshot or pad printed.

I'm tempted...what converter do I need for that connector? Or will I need to make a Teensy box?

The legends on the right of the alphas are Taiwanese phonetic characters. The ones in the bottom right are Chinese words.

Also note the extra tall F row keycaps.

You sure this is Alps though? Could also be MX or Futaba.
