Subject: research questions


One of our researchers asked a number of questions which I am unable to
answer, so I'm turning to the list for help:
Does anyone out there have (or know who has) the American periodical, "The
Operator" - c. 1860-1900?
 
Is there a repository for "The Telegraph Journal and Electrical Review",
published in London?  In particular, we are looking for the bound Volume 5,
1877.
 
Is there a way for those of us in the U.S. to get access to British patent
files?  We're looking for a copy of patent specifications for early
telephone patents, and we have the patent numbers.
 
Thanks, list!
