Paperback cover has some wear. Spine has wear. Missing sheets. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.
This well-loved copy of the 1967 fourth edition of “Technical Drawing Problems Series 1” offers a glimpse into the world of mid-20th century technical drafting education. Authored by Frederick E. Giesecke, Alva Mitchell, Henry Cecil Spencer, and Ivan Leroy Hill, this textbook was a staple in engineering and technical drawing courses across America during a time when drafting was still primarily done by hand. Despite its age and wear, the clean pages and secure binding attest to the enduring value placed on this instructional resource by generations of students and professionals. Collectors of vintage technical literature or those with an interest in the history of engineering education will appreciate the opportunity to own a piece of this era’s pedagogical legacy. While missing some sheets, the remaining content provides a window into the drafting techniques and standards that shaped the built environment we inhabit today.
