Mid Atlantic wtb: vintage computing memorabilia, pdp-11

[hush]

hey all!

i collect memorabilia (pins/buttons, marketing material, clothing, paperweights, mugs- anything, really!) from various longstanding computing companies, with a focus mainly on DEC. i'm looking for anything you may have lying around and are willing to part with, just poke me with some pictures and i'll let you know if i'm interested!

note: while i'm mainly interested in DEC, i'm really just looking for any computing memorabilia from the 90s and earlier, be it from sun, IBM, SGI, or anywhere!

i'm also (potentially) in the market for an 11, with a budget of ~US$2000- unfortunately i'm not looking to resurrect anything at the moment (i don't think i'd even be able to :D), so working systems only, please! a 73 or an 83 would be excellent, but i'm evaluating my options so don't hesitate to reach out!

thanks all, and be safe!

I have an assortment of weird stuff:

A Digital first aid kit, a Digital calculator, a Digital sponge? a Sales Source CD, a DECdirect case with NO CD in it, badges from an IBM 2030, an IBM 2948, and Compaq Alphaserver DS10L...

A DEC reel with some wire in it instead of tape:

An empty binder that says DECsystem-4050, but doesn't actually contain anything:

And a whole bunch of mugs:

Hi,

I have tons of old 1975 to mid-80's news letters, manuals, magazines etc... I also have original vintage S-100 circuit boards, a Novation Apple Cat Modem, a Motorola MEK6800D1 SBC ...

I can part stuff out for sale or trade.

I'm looking for a Solid State Music SSM-IO4, a Processor Technology GPM board and a Processor Technology 3P+S board

Other considerations for trade to me are a vintage Altair 8800 or IMSAI 8080 ... or a High Nibble IMSAI 8080 or a PiDP-8 or a PiDP-11 computers.

I am also open to other suggestions for trade.
