Nice write up and thread Bill. Burdick released his last revision of the American Card Catalog in 1960, not the first one. (though there was another in 1967 he had already passed away) His first iteration was 1939 and the first one that was named American card Catalog was in 1946. I like the W555s and am glad we finally learned where they came from. I think Burdick would be proud of the strides we have made in researching our(his) little gems.
