The original copyright was 1973.

What I consider to be some gems:

Vff (for the filaments, of course), plus the neat graph of Iff vs. Vff

_____________
Chip Destruct

The drain (sight gag)

First-in, Never-out (FINO) asynchronous buffers

Chart of pins remaining vs. socket insertions

An EDN letter to the editor in the late 70's gave an instruction set for a
Tektronix WOM tester.  Among them were:

RIRG	Read Inter-Record Gap
SPSW	Scramble Program Status Word
MLR	Move and Lose Record
CRN	Convert to Roman Numerals
EIP	Execute Programmer Immediate    (a real gem for the assembly
					 programmer types)
LCC	Load and Clear Core
HCF	Halt and Catch Fire		(my favorite)
EIOC	Execute Invalid Op Code
SRSD	Seek Record and Scar Disc
