TopicAccession #Description Summary
Augsburger, David: SpeakerMC2011/84a,b 

The reel-to-reel tape box is labeled "Augsburger,"  1/18/1979.  Sometimes the label on the box does not match the presentation, and since the speaker on the tape was not introduced, it is impossible for the Archivist to verify the identity of the speaker.  The speaker talks about multiple binds and double binds.

A second box [MC2011/84b] is labeled "110 ft. more of Augsburger 1-18-79" and it is the same individual.  This is rather certainly two tapes by the speaker David Augsburger.
