[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

yikes!  I had one of these  back when I was  dealing   computer  stuff as a 
young man!
 
suspect it might have been for media or  process control  I  have a  full 
set  of  computers and automation     mag  with tends to have  stuff like 
this.
 
I need   to get  rid  some  some duplicates of  these mags  also  to as 
well as  duplicate datamation mags still  Cory.

Thought you guys might get a kick out of this, and maybe someone  can shed 
some light on its purpose. I picked it up since it's a mechanical  stepper 
and has physical contacts. There's a sticker on the side marked "Bell  & 
Howell" and it appears to be made by Tally. Now here's the neat thing,  there's 
a 'tape out' sensing switch on BOTH sides of the reader head AND a  
differential with two solenoid releases that allows you to step the tape both  
forward AND backward. Pretty cool!   -Cory
