I mentioned in a previous email to the list that pictures of
Donder's equipment might be available in the paper copy
of either the special issue of Acta Psychologica or the
edited volume of that issue by Koster (Attention and
Performance II [2]).  I've been able to locate a copy of
the Koster volume and between pages 408 and 409 are
several black and white photographs, one of a portrait of
Donders and the rest full page photos of the RT devices
that Donders used (4 photos in all).  Again, these are
followed by several articles by Donders (his classic
paper on the subtractive method and other papers
describing the equipment he used to measure RT).

I wasn't able to find the pages with photos on the Science
Direct website which has PDF copies of the articles in the
special issue of Acta Psychologica devoted to Donders.
If anyone does find, it might be good idea to let the list
know.  If they can't be found, it might be a good idea
to notify the Science Direct folks that their electronic
version of this issue is incomplete.
