I have several copies of that one, along with several copies of
the second classic book (the yellow-covered one, I forget the
title right now). I also have the thin Focal programming book.

Most are not out of boxes right now, but I have a few within reach.

        _pdp11 handbook_

        This isn't the oldest one, since it mentions both the
        11/20 and the 11/10, but it is old - 1970.

        _processor handbook_ (pdp11/20,15,r20) 1972
        
        _processor handbook_ (pdp11/45, 1973

        _pdp11 processor handbook_ (pdp11/04/24/34a/44/7-0) 1981

        EB-19402-20/85 (copyright 1985) (slightly thinner book)

>Actually I have a good selection of the late 70s throuth the 80s PDP-11

At one point, I got myself on an automatic distribution list for
any new handbooks... it was great.

>One set I have it the two volume white books:
>
> LSI-11 Systems Service Manual (for field sevice)

Yep, I have that also...

Plus, the three binder set:

        LSI-11 Systems Service Manual

        Volume I - Systems Options
        Volume II - Module Options A-K
        Volume III - Module Options L-Z

        EK-LSIFS-SV

And the seven volume set (currently in my office) on
communications devices...

I have an old DOS/Batch manual (the 8.5" by 11" by 2.5"
thick manual and some old pdp-10 manuals as well (from 1970).

I'm going to have to catalog them...
