Bjorn Heyning's Pictures for Volume Two, Supplement One of
Heath Stories
This document was updated on Tuesday, 1 June 2004.
(Only internal changes to the HTML.)
Note: The following illustrations appeared in the
supplement. Their captions are Bjorn's. Because this supplement
has several pictures mingled with the text (instead of at the
end of the document as was done previously), I've made some
comments in the following list to point out their locations.
I've also added some personal comments in italics where appropriate.
Unless noted otherwise, the pictures appear left to right, top to
bottom.

David Nurse, President of Heath Co. 66-80 (Note:
Dave Nurse was President when I was hired by Schlumberger
Products Corporation (the company that ran the retail Heath
stores) on December 3, 1973. I'd met him a few times when
I was a store technician, plus a couple of times after
I was transferred to Michigan in 1979. I was impressed
by his ability to remember people's names. After Mr. Nurse
retired, he was replaced by his Vice-President, Bill Johnson
[not pictured in the following.] --Bill Wilkinson)

The following pictures appear on the pages following
HEATH STORIES #50.
- The following pictures appear on the pages following
HEATH STORIES #51.
- Note: The first four pictures are directly
associated with that article, MY "MOST FORGETTABLE"
STORY, which deals with Terry Perdue's struggle to
convert the 2-meter HW-2026 transceiver into the HW-2036.
You'll enjoy those four pictures more if you go back and
read HS-51, first. (BTW, I was a technician in the Omaha
store (HEC #45) when the HW-2026/2036 problem came up. A
few years later, I'd written a couple of service manuals about
products Terry had designed.)

Hilltop building in the 70's (Note: Protruding
from the roof of the building in the upper right corner
is the covering for the "Stacker." This was a machine about
three stories high which moved palettes of kits from Final
Production to the Shipping area where they were sent to Heath
customers. The top portion of the picture is Lake Michigan.
The building facing broadside to the lake appears to be the
first one that Lake Crest Apartments built. When I'd moved into
there in 1979, they'd expanded to three buildings.
