I spend an hour or two visiting the surplus room, brought back many goodies and copies of the Sam Brown books! I recall the last time was on business trip to source inspect Plummer Optics as a new supplier for lenses 1980's. I think Edmund later brought the company. Thanks for the memories.

Every Thursday in 2022, we’ll be showcasing a historic image from our 80 years of changing the world with optics! In this photo, Edmund Scientific's retail store was an emporium of educational toys and science kits to foster discovery and exploration.

The timeline is awesome. 80 years! Thanks for your contribution to science. Such a wonderful legacy of inspiring young minds. I remember this retail store. It sparked curiosity. And what a tribute to entrepreneurship!

As a child I would fog up the glass looking into the store cases.... I wanted to buy the Metrologic "Build your own HeNe laser kit" so bad!! I found all my inspiration for laser and optics there as a child when I was in Elementary school. The surplus room was where I bought all my parts through high school for my hobbies and science fair projects. Edmund Optics was and still is Awesome!!
