The Catalogues of Historical Technology Inc

 

Historical Technology Inc. issued catalogues from 1971 to 1987 relating to scientific instruments and books.  Each catalogue contained a number of surveying related instruments and books.  Hoping that people would copy and distribute the catalogues to other collectors, Historical Technology Inc. did not copyright their catalogues.  Given this fact, and the length of time that has passed since Historical Technology Inc. closed its doors, I am comfortable reproducing parts of these catalogues on the internet.  These are great catalogues, put together by a very seasoned dealer.  Enjoy.

 

While we does not have a full set of Historical Technology Inc. catalogues, we do have 25 wonderful catalogues.  The surveying related pages from the catalogues are reproduced below.

 

These files are very big, ranging in size from 500k to 4mb each.  You need either a very fast internet connection (DSL or Cable) or a lot of patience.  The catalogues are worth the wait however.  The catalogues are in .pdf (Adobe Acrobat) format.
