One of the Holy Grails

Most of the sought-after classic computers can be had, somewhere, for the right price.  But I've never wanted to pay that price, at least not from a dealer or in competition with a planet of bidders.  Local finds are the best finds, and thanks to Craigslist's alerts system, I've finally captured one of the most iconic machines in the collecting hobby, the famed "Wargames computer".

Some photos of the machine and its cards (and there are some odd ones I'll need help identifying):

The fine lot of extras that came with it:

And a great pile of documentation, magazines and advertising:
