Scope and Contents

This surviving Original Copy bound document gives a detailed breakdown of all the major components comprising this very high-speed OMR/punched-card system developed by MRC and a west coast company, IKM. This 50-page (+) document concludes with a 21-page section entitled, "MRC Production of 1501 Scanner". The project was fraught with difficulties, including major problems in the liaison/coordination between MRC and the West Coast based sub-contractor, Litton Industries and later, IKM in Chatsworth, CA. The Archival DVD Folder 1967_08_11_MRC 1501 CARD SCANNER Cost Analysis contains only a JPEG-Image scan of the Report Cover and First Page, identifying the earliest date in the sections as 8/11/67
