And while I'm at it, here some picts of the TD015 I encountered in the same week !
The switches and keycaps are the same as the TP110, so no pictures of those...

Interesting, are you able to find a date of manufacture on it? I have a TD016 (the data entry variant) and thought that the sticker above the serial number on the plate was it, but your '8042' doesn't make much sense as a year/month. Mine is '7811' which I assumed was Nov '78:



They clean up nicely and have some beautiful caps. How do the switches on yours feel? Mine are a bit sticky on off-center presses, the spacebar especially. I was pretty disappointed with the legendary Hall Effect switches

It may also be year/week in year as in 42nd week of 1980.

I did not find any other indications of a date of manufacture, and I think seebart is right; in electronics year/weeknumber datecodes are very common as I suppose that year/month codes would often not be finegrained enough..

Ah, of course! Case closed
