Looking for old Oak Industries catalog - around 1973

Guest
Anyone have a collection of Oak Industry parts catalogues for old style
switches? I am trying to find the part number for a switch used in the
early 70s to enable me to possibly track some of these down on the
surplus market.

Looking for 6 or more of these rascals. The white button is not as
important, I can make those if needs be...

Thanks!

Maybe someone has an old EEM catalog from that era?

I have a bunch of Radio Electronic Master parts catalogues starting in
1972 going back to 1942 - no OAK Industry parts in the later ones
though. They probably asked manufacturers to pony up to get listed in
these catalogues and Oak didn't.

I remember them in the EEM, and possible the Thomcat (Thomas Register Catalog). I had one old enough, but it was lost during a move. About 25 pounds of bound paper. :(

Have you searched http://www.rchive.org for anything from Oak?

I think you meant http://archive.org, not rchive.org...

Quite a bit of stuff to hunt through, may help though. I do use the
wayback machine a lot checking up on obsolete parts and web sites that
have faded away..

Thanks,

Yes. My vision is poor at the moment. I had to go a month without my Glipizide, and it is a real pain stabilizing my Glucose level, again. Until then, you can expect some typos.
