A seven page mimeographed memo, 8.5" x 11", dated June 1, 1960, with an "Armstrong" routing written at the top. Sent from Joseph Weil and Lawrence W. Taylor Jr., both Aeronautical Research Engineers, to the chief of the research division with the subject listed as: "Visit to Minneapolis-Honeywell Regulator Company, Minneapolis, Minnesota, to discuss the status of the X-15 adaptive-control system." A long and very detailed technical discussion follows that would be a trove of information the aviation historian. All are toned but very readable and have dampstaining. Very good.
