Pickett teaching-size slide rule
physical object
2016.10.1
Description
Teaching-sized slide rules were used to demonstrate the use of a slide rule from the front of a classroom. According to the online Slide Rule Museum, 7-foot long models like this one are relatively common, in part because Pickett gave one to every school that ordered a set of normal sized rules for students.Related Collections
