Or me for that matter, but I have a couple of comments.

6-level code. Used, I'm fairly sure of, to communicate with the 
automated typesetting equipment.
Looks like a tape punch. either from the keyboard, and perhaps also from 
an incoming line signal.
The price seems pretty high, to me at least, but perhaps it is justified 
by the scarcity of this unit?

That being said, I actually was more interested in seeing this variation 
of eBay even though my
Spanish is a bit rusty. ;-)
