Is there any value in "pdp8/e pdp8/m & pdp8/f small
computer handbook" of 1973?

It's full of pictures about how computers are designed and
made but which seem to bear no resemblance to
today's products

For any pdp-8 collector it would be. If you are offering it I would
be interested. If you are trying
to sell it you can check places like eBay. They are often sold there,
but probably a bit overpriced
as most things sold on eBay now are (IMHO).

In article <4af441c5$1...@news.x-privat.org>,

bitsavers.org might be interested in it.
