Meyer's own record

428 documents

Filed, written or said by Meyer, and the press that covered him while he was alive. The primary material, transcribed from the originals.

The apparatus

58 documents

The hardware, shelf by shelf. What each part is, what it was measured at, and which of his filings describe it.

What the offices held it against

9,134 documents

Not held here — indexed. The prior art examiners weighed his claims against, and the later filings that had to cite him. Each links to its public record.

Working through it

76 documents

Routes in, for somebody who has not read any of this before.

What the replicators wrote

123 documents

Work by the people replicating it: build notes, measurements, and the books they assembled. Theirs, and marked as theirs.

Background reading

536 documents

The physics Meyer was working from and against — Maxwell, Heaviside, Fleming — held in full because the arguments about this work keep returning to them.

Not yet filed

Shelves that arrived after the library was arranged. They are here so nothing goes missing while somebody decides where they belong.
