I wish to acquire some of the extremely old texts on Lisp (circa the 60s).
"The Programming Language Lisp: Its Operation and Applications", by Edmund
Berkeley and Daniel Bobrow, editors (MIT Press, 1966) and "Lisp 1.5 Primer" /
"Lisp 1.5 Programmers Reference" (Around the same time) are of particular
interest to me.

If you have any of these texts or know someone getting rid of them, please
let me know.

Thanks,

-Eric Scharff

| "Lisp 1.5 Primer" / "Lisp 1.5 Programmers Reference" (Around the same
| time) are of particular interest to me.

at least the latter of these two is available from MIT Press. it is still
in print. my copy says "second edition, fifteenth printing, 1985". at
least available from the MIT Press Bookstore and from books.com for $8.95.
publication date is listed as 06/62.
