very strange terminal keyboard

Beckman terminal keyboard... seems to be a very unusually customized WY85 or similar... if you've always wanted that special keycap with a 'URINE' legend, don't miss your chance!

Finally, my "bodily fluids" keycap collection will be complete!

Actually, the keycaps on this unit are less...er, yellowed.

Though on the downside, you have to buy the entire machine.

Apparently a standard keyboard adapted to a very special clinical machine. Keys have been installed only for the purposes of that machine. Today, I think someone would adapt a POS keyboard instead.

Such a damn shame that these caps are not buckling-spring compatible.
From the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 :

The Congress shall have Power

To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;

To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

I notice this also has a BUN key:
