MUTHUR keyboard in 'Alien'

[Xenomrph]

I was presented with an interesting project by someone on another forum and thought I'd enlist your guys' help. The short version is that he's trying to create a reproduction of the MUTHUR terminal keyboard from 'Alien'. Here's what he asked me:

I'm looking to make the keyboard for MUTHUR, and I think I have a company that can print the legends onto the right type of keycaps... however I can't find a single image of the keyboard from the film close up, I only have images (and vector images for printing) of the keyboards you see in Alien: Isolation. I know there's no one else to go to when it comes to all things Alien and I was wondering if you knew or had ANY images close up of the prop online or in your personal collection. My image search for the prop comes up with distant shots or screens from the film that don't show what the keys look like.

I feel like there's no images anywhere to be had of this damn thing.

Does anyone have anything that could help him out?

A guy over on propsummit called Isnochys79 recreated the full chair and desk from the actual prop.  Here is two photos:

Hope this helps in some way.  I'm trying to find some larger images of the keyboard.  He used a vintage C64 keyboard for the keys.

How did Dallas and Ripley type in all those questions to MUTHUR with that keyboard?

[Xenomrph]

Sheer force of will.

I wonder if the "34" key brings up porn.

It brings up dating website under the name "What Are My Chances ?"

I can never not notice that four clicks on three keys results in "What's the story, Mother?"

That's the autofill button.
