Debunking decades old myths about prop performance

The pattern community learned a lot from the prop testing groups during the 1980’s – 2005 time frame. The following article is an expanded master document detailing several group findings. I was a member of the groups and the data was morphed into a summary version that appeared in the Pattern History 1950’s-1980’s 203 page book available on the NSRCA Historical Site as a free download.
