Here's another little item that I have, though I'm not sure if it's rare. I can't figure out what it actually came from, but it's a UNIVAC branded drawer pull (I believe). I imagine it came from something like a console desk, though I've scoured photos of various UNIVACs and haven't seen anything exactly like it.
It makes a nice little desk ornament at least! Here's a photo: http://bensinclair.com/system/images/images/000/000/031/original/IMG_6810.jpg Also in that photo is a NeXT and an SMS card from an IBM 1130!
