This would be the one-of-a-kind analog computer from 1958 designed by George Philbrick, at the Vintage Computer Federation's museum in Wall, NJ. It's been rearranged to better reflect an operational configuration for display in the past few years.

It's on display in Wall, NJ if you want to see it in person.
