New to pre-1980 keyboards and found this interesting with the RUB OUT, LR, CR, and BREAK keys. Guessing Acorn related but not entirely certain.
Thanks!

Well it looks like the keyboard was originally embedded in a system, so you are really trying to identify what system it was. The CR key is likely a carriage return key so the system was most likely a word processor. It may help if you show some more pictures, including a picture of the switches.
Edit: I made some silly conclusions. It could be a word processor, electric typewriter, or computer.

Thank you for responding, unfortunately no additional context to share as this keyboard was found in a box by itself. The owner was a prolific hardware developer and had all sorts of prototypes and parts.

Any serial numbers or markings that could help identify it?
