"(Superseding Handbook no. 1)"

"This volume is the second of the series of three handbooks which are designed to replace that earlier publication of the National Bureau of Standards known as Handbook no. 1, Manual of inspection and information for weights and measures officials. The first volume of the series has already been published as Handbook no. 11, Weights and measures administration; the third volume, which is planned under the title Weights and measures technology, will probably be published in about a year from the date of the present volume."--Pref., p.
