First appearance of Shewhart's seminal second publication on Quality control which gave birth to the entire field of statistical quality control thus created the basis for the control chart by experiments that are now an integrated part of all statistical control. ""Shewhart successfully brought together the disciplines of statistics, engineering, and economics and became known as the father of modern quality control. Shewhart was concerned that statistical theory serve the needs of industry. He exhibited the restlessness of one looking for a better way. A man of science who patiently developed and tested his ideas and the ideas of others, he was an astute observer of developments in the world of science and technology. In that respect, the field of quality control can claim a genuine pioneer in Shewhart."" (Berger, Roger W. The Certified quality engineer handbook, 2002, P. 55).

First edition of Shewhart's important paper on statistical quality control.""Shewhart successfully brought together the disciplines of statistics, engineering, and economics and became known as the father of modern quality control. Shewhart was concerned that statistical theory serve the needs of industry. He exhibited the restlessness of one looking for a better way. A man of science who patiently developed and tested his ideas and the ideas of others, he was an astute observer of developments in the world of science and technology. In that respect, the field of quality control can claim a genuine pioneer in Shewhart."" (Berger, Roger W. The Certified quality engineer handbook, 2002, P. 55).Most of Shewhart's papers were keept unpublished but implemented in the Bell Laboratories. The present paper was written in 1935 and it's techniques were put into practice immediately after it was, however, first published for a wider audience with the present article in 1958.The issue also includes the first edition of SLEPIAN'S groundbreaking paper on fluctuations of random noise. His analysis has exercised influence in measuring and analyzing back ground noise from space and, more exotic, analysis signals from outer space in search for extra-terrestrial aliens.

6 papers, all in offprints relating to Industrial Quality Control. 1. Some Principles of the Shewart Methods of Quality Control. (1944) - 2. Statistical techniques and international Trade. (1953). - 3. Die verantwortung der betriebsführung für die Anw...
Different Places, 1944-56. 8vo and 4to. 6 offprints as issued. Offprints from different Journals. Clean and fine.
First appearance of these papers in which Deming exposed his techniques of increasing production processes based on Shewart's methods of quality control. A number of Japanese manufacturers applied his techniques widely and experienced heretofore unheard-of levels of quality and productivity. The improved quality combined with the lowered cost created new international demand for Japanese products.""In 1950, W. Edwards Deming, at the request of the Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers, give a series of lectures in Japan on Shewhart’s statistical quality control of industrial processes. These lectures were the catalyst that gave birth to Japan’s industrial efficiency and emphasis on highest attainable quality of manufactured products."" (DSB)..
