IBM 3277 Terminal (1972)

The keyboard in the top picture is most definitely mismatched for this terminal, compared to the examples below.  The case shape mostly is what I look at, as various button configurations are normal for terminals of this era.
Note that, compared to below examples, the CRT display is different dimensions than the original.  This leads us to believe that Universal Studios did a "swap trick" where they gutted the original CRT and inserted a slightly smaller "modern" (1982-era)  video display and fed it a composite video feed for special effects.

And yes, it had a light pen, too!
