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.

@marioguzman @bpd I took the liberty of merging both your sets with mine, and found a bunch more including NeXTSTEP from 1993, so currently 31 documents: https://github.com/gingerbeardman/apple-human-interface-guidelines
