I still have my Pickett, as well. The TI SR-10 and SR-11 pocket calculators came out when I was in high school, but almost no one in my school could afford one.

Probably 1972 or ’73 I had a manual slide rule.

Thanks, SunflowerGirl100.
And you’re right, jreckard. I switched to one of those new electronic calculators in the mid-1970s.
