Cardboard Package

Cardboard Package

Cardboard package, containing strips made by Judith Milledge c1952-3 in the United States whilst at MIT. Labelled with Dr Milledge's maiden name: Dr Grenville Wells. Based on Patterson's strips, JM made 100 sets and sold them, mainly to students, for $100 each. As computers were becoming more widespread, Dr Milledge believes these may be the last made by hand.
