• IBM logo oval stickers - silver on black - what were they used for ...

    From JimBobPS2@21:1/5 to All on Sat Mar 12 19:29:54 2022
    I just found a sheet of the IBM sticker "badges"
    They are the size of the ones used on PS/ machines ...
    stretched oval Roughly 1" tall x 1 1/2 long but instead of the
    traditional gray background these are shiny chrome with black background...

    I'd love to append pics but I don't see that as possible...

    Anybody know the products they were used on?

    Thanks,
    Jim
