What is the earliest documented proof you have of Pulsar announcing or showing off their 1st LED calculator in 1975/6 ??? (gold, ss, any version)
I'd appreciate your knowledge on this point. thanks.
I've been sorting through my limited archive of Pulsar literature, and I found two price lists [I was certain I had others, but at the moment, they elude me]. One, Sept. 1, 1974, lists no calculator models at all, and the other, an extensive listing dated Jul. 1, 1976, shows the 3822-2 at $550, and the 1822-2 at $3950. It is interesting that the 1976 list is labeled as a "Fall" issue. Myself, I have always thought of July as a summer month, but if Time Computer considered it part of the Fall season, it is possibe the first [901] Calculator models appeared as early as July, 1975. If some of you other Pulsar collectors would be so kind as to search their lists and catalogs, we might be able to pin this down much more accurately...
