Wikipedia, Apr. 12, 2017 under Sperry Corporation (Sperry Corporation (1910-1986) was a major American equipment and electronics company; the company was founded in 1910, as the Sperry Gyroscope Company; in 1918 Lawrence Sperry split from his father to compete over aero-instruments with the Lawrence Sperry Aircraft Company [no publications in LC database]; in 1924 the two firms were brought together. The company became Sperry Corporation in 1933; The new corporation was a holding company for a number of smaller entities such as the original Sperry Gyroscope, Ford Instrument Company, Intercontinental Aviation, Inc., and others; in 1955, Sperry acquired Remington Rand and renamed itself Sperry Rand; in 1978 Sperry Rand ... sold a number of divisions including Remington Rand Systems, Remington Rand Machines, Ford Instrument Company and Sperry Vickers; the company dropped "Rand" from its title and reverted to Sperry Corporation; in 1986, after the success of a second hostile takeover bid engineered by Burroughs' CEO and former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, Michael Blumenthal, Sperry Corporation merged with Burroughs Corporation to become Unisys)
