can you guess what this motherboard is from?

Wow.. I cant believe it was a pipe organ. My electronics teacher showed us pictures of these massive pipes he dedicated to his basement, and then he had the regular sized pipes upstairs. Him and his brother-in-law apparently built the thing when the first computers in canada were just being sold (he claims he bought his computer from "the first canadian computer store"), and he had to solder it together himself. He wired the whole thing together with piles and piles of circuit boards that look very similar to the ones you showed, and then from there they were interfaced with the computer. Apparently BASIC ran too slow to run his music so he was forced to use straight assembly.
That crazy old man sure loved his organ music :P

A pipe organ??
I think my pot growing comment was closer to the mark than most first realised.
