The image gives an assembly number.  There should also be a part number
somewhere.  The assembly number would identify the board if someone has
one with the same number, but the part number can be looked up in parts
lists and service manuals.

It's clear they can't be right.  There are no vectors at the top of
memory.  It would not even come up, let alone go into BASIC.  The BASIC
power up message isn't there either.  

Since the 4K ROM is right and the 8K ones are not, I would guess there is
an error in the routine to read the 8K ROM's.
