Apple Extended Keyboard II (ADB) – Boxed | 1992 | M3501FN | Assembled in Ireland Offered here is a boxed, fully working Apple Extended Keyboard II (AEK II) — widely regarded as one of the finest keyboards Apple has ever produced. Introduced in the early 1990s, this iconic ADB keyboard is highly sought after by collectors and classic Macintosh enthusiasts for its build quality, tactile feel, and timeless design. This example dates from 1992, carries the model number M3501FN, features a Flemish (Belgian) AZERTY key layout, and was assembled in Ireland — an increasingly rare and desirable detail among European Apple collectors. // What’s Included? – Original Apple Extended Keyboard II (ADB) – Original Apple retail box // Condition & Functionality – Fully tested and working – In excellent cosmetic condition, especially for its age – One minor cosmetic note: a small handwritten ballpoint pen marking “122” on the front side of the box (purely cosmetic) – Keys are clean, responsive, and evenly toned // Compatibility – Designed for ADB-equipped Macintosh systems (Classic Macs, Quadra, Centris, early Power Macintosh models) // Collector’s Note The Apple Extended Keyboard II is celebrated for its high-quality mechanical key switches and remains a benchmark for keyboard design. Boxed examples in this condition — especially with European assembly and regional layout — are becoming increasingly difficult to find. // A Timeless Apple Classic Whether you are restoring a period-correct Macintosh setup, adding a flagship input device to your collection, or displaying a piece of Apple’s golden hardware era, this keyboard represents Apple craftsmanship at its peak. Please carefully review all photos to fully assess the item’s condition before bidding. Especially fitting during the holiday season, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic piece of professional design history.
