Formula Notebooks, circa 1980

Wall-to-wall and cover-to-cover odd formulae.

During another archeological dig in my home office I cam across a couple of forty-year-old small notebooks. Each one is filled with pages of math, geometry, physics, electrical engineering, and other odd and esoteric formulae.

Each notebook is filled with loose-leaf sheets covered in arcane formulae...
The notebooks in question. Each one is filled with 3″ x 6″ loose leaf-sheets covered in arcane formulae…

Below is a random selection of pages from the notebooks. Beware attempting to duplicate these formulae at home, you never know when you may summon and Ancient One!

I was quite the draftsman back in the day when you had to actually draw by hand.

Note: The images were processed to make the age-yellowed pages more legible.
