Keyboard is a 1397735 keyboard (similar to 1391401) made in 1994. Similar in construction to most 1391401 keyboards with drainage channels but with additional original IBM features of removeable, SDL to ps/2 cable, two-piece key caps and key stems and multi-color printing on key caps (green lettering on Alt keys, secondary gray lettering on numeric keypad keys). Keyboards were imprinted without IBM logo sticker.
A brand new 1994 keyboard that has never seen the light of day for 15 years. Has been in storage in original cardboard box with styrofoam packaging. Boxes may have been opened for product photography and to inventory and to confirm new, unused condition.
