The entire title is "50 Years of the Design Science Revolution and the World Game". It was prepared for free distribution at the joint
national meeting of the Operational Research Society and American Astronautical Society, Denver, Colorado, June 17-21, 1969.
I think the signature is real as under a jewelers loupe you can see where the ink ran into the paper fibers. It is written in thir...d person and
seems to be a chronological history of Fullers life and designs. There are many illustrations, photos and diagrams.
There are 125 pages. The glue binding has disintegrated and the pages are coming loose. It can be rebound easily. There are no rips,
marks or damage. There is light wear to the edges.
I believe this was never intended to be a book or be published. This was printed for a small group of scientific fellows in the two
societies, so it is a one and only printing.
I found this in an estate I am conducting. If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer them.
