Special thanks to The Internet Archive for bringing valuable contents to us readers in the beginning of 2022. Instruction/guide books shown above are deeply nostalgic to me as they evoke memories of bookstores with booklets giving information and instructions on almost everything in life – information that is now accessed on the web and not through books anymore.
