Bir İngiliz asker tarafından İngiltere’ye getirilen en az 70 yıllık makine, askerin ailesi tarafından satışa çıkarıldı. Bonhams yetkilisi Jon Baddeley, “Askerin aile bireylerinden birinin evinde duran bu makinenin değerini kimse bilmemiş. Ama Yapay Oyun (Imitation Game) isimli filmi izledikten sonra cihazın değerinin farkına varmışlar” dedi.
