Sub-series Description
Arranged alphabetically by title, this sub-series consists of in-house publications. The materials preserved here provide a limited amount of documentation regarding the Spinco Division and its products between the early 1970s and 2000. They are also examples of Spinco’s and its parent companies’ efforts to communicate with employees, dealers, and the general public.
A majority of items in this sub-series were published by Spinco’s corporate parents Beckman Instruments, Incorporated, SmithKline Beckman Corporation, and Beckman Coulter, Incorporated. Publications printed by the Spinco Division under the ownership of its corporate parents are also found here.
Reports and newsletters make up a majority of this sub-series’ contents. Two fact books, a brochure, a calendar, a meeting program, and two issues of Quest magazine are preserved in this sub-series as well.
