This brings back memories..... I worked for the EB during a couple summers while in college. This was while they were changing over to the Micropedia/Macropedia format, c. 1970.

I recently discovered that the Encyclopedia has its own tartan:

It is on the list of tartans I would like to have, if only the money was there.
