The famous 1953 "IRE Computer Issue" in the original wrappers containing ten (!!!) Origins of Cyberspace articles and a total of forty-one articles on the state of the art computing. Many authors were influential, on the cutting edge of computing, and are found throughout the historical literature tracking technical and business innovations throughout their careers. A few of the essential papers include: Claude Shannon, "Computers and Automata" (Origins of Cyberspace #885) --- contains a brief review of developments in the field of automata and non-numerical computation Claude Shannon and Moore, "Machine aid for switching circuit design" (Origins of Cyberspace #886) --- describes the first "verification" machine, built at Bell Labs and called the" relay circuit analyzer." Grace Hopper and John Mauchly, "Influence of programming technique on the design of computers" (Origins of Cyberspace #664) --- contains a discussion of how advances in programming techniques could influence the design of future computers. This article references the UNIVAC I. Huskey, Ambrose, and Yowell, "The SWAC design features and operating experience" (Origins of Cyberspace #672) --- contains a general description of the functional characteristics of the SWAC computer, including references to electrostatic and magnetic drum memories. Buchholz, "The system design of the IBM Type 701 computer" (Origins of Cyberspace #508) --- describes the overall system design of IBM's first electronic digital computer And many more period articles. 8¼" - 11".

First edition of the landmark operating manual for the Harvard Mark I, largely written by Grace Hopper, "one of the most famous of the postwar computer pioneers" (OOC). Also known as the IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator, the electromechanical Mark I was designed by the American physicist Howard Aiken. Hopper joined Aiken's team in 1944 and became its chief programmer. The Mark I became fully operational in May 1944 and was almost immediately commandeered for war work by the US Navy, after which Hopper was tasked with writing an instruction manual for it. This task was "so monumental that she referred to her project as a computer 'bible'. It was a detailed treatment of Mark I's physical components, operation, and maintenance. Most importantly, the manual described with elaborate care how to program Mark I, thus becoming the first ever computer programming textbook" (Harvard). Hopper acted as general editor and was chief author of the first three chapters and the eight appendices. The manual was published as the first volume of the Annals of the Computation Laboratory; its niche technical purpose meant it circulated in relatively low numbers. Hopper became involved with a number of other influential technological developments: she was central to the development of UNIVAC, the first commercial computer; she created the first compiler, the system that allows programming in plain English rather than numerical code; and she co-developed the commercial language COBOL. She retired from the Navy in 1986 as a Rear Admiral. Aiken, after seeing his machine through a further three versions, established Harvard's advanced-degree programme in computing.
