Paper tape punch and reader
The worst of the cosmetic damage.
First, the paper tape reader (bottom) has a cracked housing. It's a clean-ish crack all the way through, so I stopped at TAP Plastics today to get some plastic weld for it. It should go back together OK, though it won't be cosmetically perfect.
Next, the paper tape punch (up top) is missing its characteristic clear plastic buttons. While I was at TAP I picked up a foot of 5/8" clear plastic rod, it's a perfect fit. I'll cut 1" sections, melt a little catch into the bottom so they don't pop out the top, and it should look and function as if it were completely original.
