A few months back we took a look at the snapshots the late, great Nick DeWolf took during the Teradyne co-founder’s visit to the State Fair of Texas back in ’77. Seeing as how this is the most wonderful time of the year, I went back to that estimable, invaluable collection to see if we missed anything of note, as curator Steve Lundeen, DeWolf’s son-in-law, is constantly adding new photos to the archives.
