please forward the excel list to us, we are also seeking to complete a set
here for the museum ( see www.smecc.org)

of particular need are  the  books on microwaves, antennas, traveling waves,
and acoustics.  we are also in search of the red volumes ( sometimes these
still have the dust jackets on them ) in the quantum electronics series.

Please address any lists to  [email protected]

Please check our web site at
 http://www.smecc.org
to see other engineering fields, communications and computation stuff we
buy, and by all means  when in Arizona drop in and see us.

address:

 coury house / smecc
5802 w palmaire ave

thanks Ed Sharpe archivist for SMECC

Hope this is on topic.  I know that many you of you have had an engineering
education and are at least in the 50 plus age range.  Hence my inquiry  may
make some sense to you. I have been collecting the electrical engineering
texts in the Frederick Terman - McGraw Hill series.  These books were
published from about 1946 to 1970 and cover the "modernization" of the EE
curriculum.  By this I mean the inclusion of high level math and theory and
up to the period just before computing became popular.  Most were bound in
black cloth with red pin stripes on the spine (this can vary with orange in
the Princeton sub-series or green in the Brooklyn Poly sub-series).
Frederick Terman's contributions were his multi-editions of Radio
Engineering.  In addition, Terman was well known as the former head of EE
and the Dean of Engineering at Stanford and  the one who encouraged Dave and
Bill to build that audio oscillator in their garage.

Well, I figured there were about 144 different books in this series and I
have collected many of them. I have an excel spreadsheet which I would be
glad to share if you are indeed interested or have something to offer.  The
remaining ones are becoming more difficult to find so I am broadening my
search.

Thanks for your patience.
