Keycom/Synertek adhesive membrane keyboard circa 1983 - anyone seen one of these before?

I picked up this farout adhesive, membrane keyboard made by Keycom/Synertek. It was cheap and unique so I grabbed it. Not sure what these were designed for exactly, seems like something that had a particular application in mind. Couldn't find much on the keyboard or Keycom though that's par for the course when it comes to the pieces in my collection, I have a knack for finding cool, unique pieces that no one has ever heard of, but I guess that's the way I like it .

It does look like a keyboard for a viewdata system, a phone style keypad along with call and hangup keys. The surprise key is unusual though.

Weird, I actually remember seeing that on ebay but that was before I had the keyboard. That's great to see it adńhered to something. I need to remember to search the forum instead of just googling stuff.
