Found this in a museum about Wyoming in barn. Anyone know what it is? It was next to farming tools but kinda looks like an Altair or something.

@art I'm not aware of any ancient computing companies that went by Kellogg but that is not a very comprehensive look at the subject, as I am sure there are more ancient computing companies of whomst I am unaware than there are that I know of.

@art I'm going to take a punt that 'KELLOGG' is the Kellogg Switchboard and Supply Co. https://www.madeinchicagomuseum.com/single-post/kellogg-switchboard-and-supply-co/

@art It appears to be a switchboard made by Kellogg Switchboard & Supply Co. Dates to 1937, according to this online simulator I found http://kellogg.rf.gd/

@art After staring at this image for a good 10 minutes I think it looks a bit like a mini phone switchboard.

@art shouldnt an altair have plenty of lamps/leds to display status n such ? cant see any on this snapshot. on the other hand... cant see sockets either. so an old manual pbx also is out.
