He was an excellent instructor and I remember enjoying his class.

As a side note, I severed as secretary/treasurer of the university's HP Calculator club during those years.

Thank you so much for sharing your past experience related to this calculator and to Professor Hawkins, Mark! Indeed we live in a global village!
This calculator will remain with the original owner's label attached as it was originally.

As promised, here are the first batch of photos showing the calculator internals.

As you can see, my lack of patience already destroyed a perfectly good rubber foot only because I was not looking to what I was doing. Silly me. Hopefully the rubber
foot will stick back nicely.
