A sourced archival investigation into the 1958 outside test of Walter Russell’s electromagnetic coil design.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-11 issue.

Field notes

The archive combines a narrative essay with a source repository containing OCR-style transcripts, full-resolution PNG scans, drawing descriptions, indexes, and extraction notes. Its account centers on a 1958 exchange between John E. Dube and Walter Russell, with supporting references to roughly 15–21 Dube patents, ASHRAE leadership, and a contemporary engineering publication. The page also marks two unprinted letters as unresolved gaps rather than silently smoothing over the record.
