These are large scientific reports, 8.5x11". Most are illustrated. The first number is the year of publication and the last number is the report number : HIG-69-11 = Report #11 from 1969. Some papers also have a number from another series. Page numbers are often approximate due to unpaged or separately paged sections, sometimes pages are printed only on one side, sometimes on both..
