Nature and Origin of Standards of Quality [Shewhart] (+) Fluctuations of Random Noise Power [Slepian]. - [THE FATHER OF QUALITY CONTROL]
(New York), American Telephone and Telegraph Company, 1958. 8vo. Volume XXXVII, January, No. 1, 1958 of ""The Bell System Technical Journal"". In the original printed blue wrappers. A bit of sunning to spine and previous owner's signature to front wrapper, otherwise a very nice and fresh copy. [Shewhart's paper:] Pp. 1-22. [Slepian's paper:] Pp. 163-184.
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 (Berger, Roger W. The Certified quality engineer handbook, 2002, P. 55).Most of Shewhart's papers were keept unpublished but implemented in the Bell Laboratories.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.

First appearance of Shewhart's seminal first publication on Quality control charts. Shewhart, the father of statistical quality control, 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.

Correction of Data for Errors of Measurement. (+) Correction of Data for Errors of Averages. (2 papers).
New York, Bell Telephone Laboratories, 1926. Orig. printed wrappers to both papers. Both punched with three holes in inner margin as issued. Offprints from ""The Bell System Technical Journal"", Vol. V. The offprints separately paginated: 16 pp. and 12 pp. The first clean and fine, the second with light wear to wrappers.
First editions in the offprint issues of two of Shewhart's main papers that reveals the evolution of his thinking and methods on the way to founding the science of statistical quality control or statistical proces 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. While the literature of the day discussed the stochastic nature of both biological and technical systems, and spoke of the possibility of applying statistical methodology to these systems, Shewhart actually showed how it was to be done"" in that respect, the field of quality control can claim a genuine pioneer in Shewhart. His monumental work, Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product, published in 1931, is regarded as a complete and thorough exposition of the basic principles of quality control"" (ASQ).
