I am trying to obtain a copy (electronic or hardcopy) of BBN Report 1822
(IETF STD 39, now historical). I have looked all over the 'net, but no
luck. I even wrote to Bolt, Beranek, and Newman (BBN) requesting a
copy, but they said such is no longer available.

My hope is that there's a copy of this historical report floating out
there somewhere.

If you have some question about the way it worked, I'd say there's a
decent chance someone will remember and be able to answer if you ask.
Although I think it did have an nroff source, it was, IIRC, primarily kept
as a paper document, which is probably why you're having a hard time
finding a copy. Once upon a time, there were lots of copies, but ARPANET
IMPs that use 1822 have been gone for a long time now.

rfc.net has the following, possibly useful, RFCs:

0270 Correction to BBN Report No. 1822 (NIC NO 7958). A.M. McKenzie.
Jan-01-1972. (Format: TXT=1371 bytes) (Updates NIC 7959)
0716 Interim Revision to Appendix F of BBN 1822. D.C. Walden, J.
Levin. May-24-1976. (Format: TXT=3345 bytes)

0802 ARPANET 1822L Host Access Protocol. A.G. Malis. Nov-01-1981.
(Format: TXT=62470 bytes) (Obsoleted by RFC0851)
0851 ARPANET 1822L Host Access Protocol. A.G. Malis. Apr-18-1983.
(Format: TXT=72042 bytes) (Obsoletes RFC0802) (Obsoleted by RFC0878)
0878 ARPANET 1822L Host Access Protocol. A.G. Malis. Dec-01-1983.
(Format: TXT=74774 bytes) (Obsoletes RFC0851)

E.g., "http://rfc.net/rfc0802.html".
