Just looking into their background, they were an optics and telescope manufacturer

Edmund Scientific was one of my favorite catalogs to read when I was a kid in the '70s.

I loved their catalogs when I was a kid in the late '50's and early '60's. They had lots of cool scientific stuff. My brother and I ordered corn seeds from them that had been exposed to radioactive rays so that the corn DNA would be modified. We always hoped we'd strike it rich with some new variety of super-duper corn but it never worked out that way.

I spent many an hour looking through their catalogs back in the day too! :thumbup:
