Heath Catalogs

[Randy Kaeding]

Glen and all:

Heathkit has not been in the H-shaped building in St. Joe for over 12 years.
That building now houses several unrelated companies.

We moved to a completely renovated former K-mart building in downtown Benton
Harbor in early 1991. Half of the building currently houses the Benton
Harbor Charter School, while Heathkit occupies the other half.

Only the educational part of the company is still is business, and we are
quite succesful. You can view our webpage at www.heathkit.com

One thing to remember is that copyrights are still in
force (the Bono ammendment extended the Copyright Law
of the United States of America to 95 years) and thus
reproducing the catalogues would require permission
from the copyright holder.

Heath is STILL in business and is located in the "H"
shaped building that they occupied since the late
1950s in Saint Joseph, Michigan.  Their mailing
address was Benton Harbor but the plant was located in
Saint Joseph (south of Benton Harbor).  Heath is just
not making electronic kits any more.  I believe that
they are in the computer accessory, or something like
that, business these days.

I have no idea as to what their position would be
concerning reproducing their catalogues.  But, they
should be contacted to eliminate any possibility of
reprocussions.

Speaking of scans...wouldn't it be nice if one of the
Heathkit-oriented websites included scans of the
covers of all the catalogs?
