I just installed mine from the eBay guy, Desktop Sales, and....it works!

Mine was Vintage, etc, just as desribed. The key feature on mine is that
there are 6 black rectangles on EACH side, for a total of 12, which gives us
the required 96 MB.

The module is physically half-again longer than the 64 and 48 modules I've
had, in order to add the 2 + 2 = 4 additional RAM chips, apparently. But
there is room for it in the 'book.

As long as you have those rectangles on both sides, sounds to me like you
got two for the price of one after all.
