It was the standard IBM keypunch. I spent many hours muttering at it
in 1961.
Ok... definitely a bit before my time. Used keypunches my freshman year
at college (1971) - in a course that took us from IBM 360 batch, to
360/TSO, to Multics - but after that, punch cards were primarily a nice
(and free) source of notecard :-)
Ahh the good old days.
