Over the years, I have scoured the internet for various versions of the Mac HIG PDFs. Here is my collection so far.

Some neat ones include HIGs for Mac OS 8 & a preliminary Mac OS X version from the Public Beta.

These HIGs contain general desktop guidelines that still apply today & that you can't find in the modern HIG.

Please retoot! Everyone should read these.

@kevinbhayes @marioguzman I mailed Mario my paper copy of the 1987 edition earlier this year. The electronic version would be a nice addition to his file collection.
