I remember sometime around 1980 taking a photo of the "passing 
of the check" ceremony when Univac bought a license for KeyKOS. 
The amount of the check was confidential, however the Nikon lens 
and Kodachrome film showed the value quite clearly. Oops! We 
fuzzed that part of the picture when we printed it.
