Speaking of which, here’s a funny thing. When I was volunteering at the Computer History Museum a decade or so ago, I got certified to operate Charles Babbage’s Difference Engine No. 2. (Here’s an old photo.) It was a 5-ton calculating machine that felt unlike any other.pic.twitter.com/lk6P9XIbzE
But today I know exactly what it feels like, and it’s mind blowing to me, and I feel lucky to be able to have had both these experiences to compare them. Babbage’s Engine is a calculator that feels like a locomotive. (!!!!!)
Oh, yeah, of course there were keyboards also: one on a typewriter for some local paperwork, and another on a teletype connected to the outside world in the pre-internet age.pic.twitter.com/6mGuoprqG5

That dining car supply list is my JAM. Three kinds of olives, 6 kinds of crackers, two kinds of PEAS. ONE SANDWICH WTF I need to know about that sandwich.
It sort of looks like a concept of a sandwich maybe?
I don’t suppose you have a shot of the full sheet? It’s really cool.
Maybe you can contact them and they take it for you?
Maybe, I’ll look around too. Maybe there’s one on Flickr. I’m guessing it’s from the late 60s-early 70s.
