I was one of the 32 people in Gordon French's garage on March 5th, 1975 for the first meeting of what would become the Homebrew Computer Club. I was working then at SLAC, and Frank Rothacker and I arranged for the club to meet first in the Orange Room at SLAC and later, as attendance grew, in the main auditorium.
I have many of the original newsletters, which were edited by
the late Fred Moore for the first six months and then by Robert
Reiling. Those that I have so far found I have scanned into
medium resolution JPEG images of the individual pages.
Each is about 500KB at (mostly) 1700x2200 pixels.
You may look at them here, along with some
images of related documents that happened to be in the same file folder.
