    What Is This?

    I have no idea. It looks like it's from the 1960s, and even though I grew up then, I don't have a clue as to what this thing is.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Looks like a large-scale mock-up of some consumer device but I dunno about your dating it to the Sixties. That seven-segment digital read-out really didn't come along until the Seventies.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    That's a blonde leaning up against a large scale mockup of a handheld device of some sort. If you look at the sliding switch below the meter with digits, there's a human stick figure. One of the symbols below that looks like a horseshoe magnet to me. It has a point like a pen or needle, maybe a medical device??? Some sort of syringe perhaps? I'm guessing it's large scale. If that's the actual size, I dunno.

    A muffler bearing test unit??
    Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.
