I believe it's only available used at this point, but:
"Chapters include: laboratory glass blowing, laboratory optical work, technique of high vacuum, coating of surfaces by evaporation and sputtering, the use of fused silica, electrometers and electroscopes, Geiger counters, vacuum thermopiles and the measurement of radiant energy, optics, photoelectric cells and amplifiers, photography in the lab, heat and high temperature, notes on the materials of research, notes on the construction and design of instruments and apparatus, and molding and casting."

- phobosanomaly 6y agoVery cool! Quality on that scan is great. It's birdwalking a bit, but you posting that also made me check to see if Internet Archive has early editions of Vogel's Practical Organic Chemistry, and they do! Another really cool blast from the past. https://archive.org/details/Practical_Organic_Chemistry_Vogel/mode/2up https://archive.org/details/Practical_Organic_Chemistry_Voge...
