Like the picture, subject matter interesting. What is it about old engineers, we just can't seem to let go of those reference books. When was the last time you opened one?

slide rule in the case. Tells me a great deal about the old man
Looks very similar to the slide rule case I had for mine in high school, although I think my case was a little thicker. I never did get very good at using it, but it was all we had back then.
