  • 03. Chemistry Sets 2
    III Three Centuries of the Chemistry Set Part II: The 20th Century 1. 20th-Century Chemcraft Chemistry Sets As we saw in Part I, in the 19th century chemistry sets were produced as a side-line by pharmacists, instru- ment makers, and laboratory supply houses (1). The hallmark of the 20th-century American chemistry set, on the other hand, is that its manufacture was largely dominated by toy and hobby companies – a fact which is coupled with a corresponding decline in both the quality of the apparatus and the selection of chemicals. The earliest, and by far the most successful, 20th- century American chemistry set was the Chemcraft Chemistry Set, produced by the Porter Chemical Co. of Hagerstown, Maryland. Begun in 1914 by two brothers – John Jermain Porter (figures 1) and Harold Mitchell Porter (figure 2) – Porter Chemical produced its first chemistry set in 1916 (2, 3). Though John, who was already a well-established chemical engineer, provided the initial capital for the company, it was Harold who actually managed it and whose name became most closely associated with the chemistry sets. The com- pany manufactured a wide variety of chemistry sets Figure 2. Harold Mitchell Porter (1893-1963). and related science toys until it was bought out by Gabriel Toys in 1969 and discontinued by Gabriel some- time in the 1980s (4). Though the Oesper Collections do not own an example of a surviving Chemcraft set from the period 1916-1920, they do own a small set from the mid- 1920s, as shown in figure 3. Likewise, figure 4 shows Figure 3.

  • Professor Richard Schrock
    1/9/13 Richard R. Schrock - Autobiography The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2005 Yves Chauvin, Robert H. Grubbs, Richard R. Schrock Richard R. Schrock Born: 4 January 1945, Berne, IN, USA Affiliation at the time of the award: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA, USA Prize motivation: "for the development of the metathesis method in organic synthesis" Field: Organic chemistry Photo: L.B. Hetherington Autobiography I was born in Berne, a northeast Indiana farming community proud of its Swiss heritage. Life was not easy for my parents, Noah J. Schrock, the second of six children, and Martha A. Habegger, the second of ten children. They married in 1933 during the Depression. My oldest brother, Luther, was born in 1934, Theodore in 1939. A few months after I appeared in 1945, the family moved to Decatur, about 13 miles north of Berne, where we lived until the summer after my fifth birthday. My most lasting memory of our first home is its proximity to the city swimming pool where I spent many happy summer days. We moved into an old house on the west side of South 13th Street in 1950. The house required a good deal of work, but my father, who had been a carpenter for fifteen years, accomplished the renovation over a period of several years. The house was located on what seemed to me to be an enormous plot of land (one acre); the backyard took forever to mow on a steamy summer day and the vegetable garden produced quantities of corn, strawberries, melons, tomatoes, and raspberries.

  • The Ageless Gergel
    TO THE UNCAGED GERGEL: LONG MAY HE SING! If you already know Max Gergel, skip this preface. You'll want to get directly to the interesting part of this book. For that matter, if you don't know Max Gergel, you can also skip this preface with very little loss. It's a rather fulsome declaration of affection for one of the world's truly unique, truly unforgettable characters. Life with — or even near — Max is never boring. The man's vitality is downright awesome, as is his cheerful zest for living and his enormous affection for his fellow man (and woman!) If Max is somewhat slowed up (as he cheerfully complains) in his present "youthful old age," it's not readily apparent to most of his colleagues. He continues to maintain a level of personal and professional activity that would wear out most of us just contemplating his current international jet-hopping. I don't really think of Max as "growing" on someone — more accurately, he "explodes" on you and you are immediately a full- fledged family member for ever thereafter. In a way, it's rather too bad that Max chose Chemistry as a profession. From Max's many lectures, the world is only beginning to realize that it lost a world-class comic in the process. No matter how many times I hear the story of Preacher's unpublished synthesis recipes, I laugh anew. To hear Max tell of his adventures and misadventures with his family, his employees, the government, his neighbors, his competitors — anyone with whom Max has had an interface — is to be reminded of the human condition and (tragedies notwithstanding) how, in Max's hands, never-endingly interesting it continues to be.
