What switch is this?

Picked up another batch of keyboards from the recycling centre, among them was a board with this:



It's some kind of spring over membrane board - no domes. It's a linear switch. The spring is stuck inside the key caps. Anyone know what this is? The board is not listed in the wiki.

Super rare vintage linear Model M.
