The little book was bound with a wire binder, and the back
cover page was stuck to the lid with pressure sensitive double
sided tape. The tape let loose over time, and the books got lost.
I found one scope that had a piece of paper taped into
the lid that dropped down when the lid opened, and said
"Pop goes the weasel".
I found another scope that had the business card of the repair
and calibration shop that worked on the scope.

Hello everyone,
Just picked a 531A scope locally today, my first 500 series scope... I
do have a little 310A and a 317, but this 531A is my first really BIG tube
scope... quite a beast. Front panel looks really crusty and off putting,
but with patience and some elbow oil, I am hoping to bring it back to its
former glory...
Sorry I digress.
I don't know much about these 500 scopes, so this 531A will teach me a
lot I am sure, during the course of its future restoration.
