[PIUG List] English Abstract for JP54-173754

Susan Taylor, the Customer Service Specialist at Wolters Kluwer IFI,
suggested that I contact the Patent Information Users Group.

 

I am searching for an English abstract for a patent utility model,
JP54-173754, dated December 7, 1979. The subject matter is a "display
device or apparatus for a vehicle." I have searched the following
databases and enlisted the help of researchers at Dialog, Questel.Orbit,
IFI, and MicroPatent.

 

JPO (E). I downloaded and printed the full-text Japanese document.

 

Patent Abstracts of Japan. They began providing English abstracts in
1992 or 1993. My document goes back to 1979.

How may I find out if an English abstract even exists? Have I
overlooked any databases?

 

Our patent agent does not want to use a human translator or obtain a
machine translation.

 

Thank you for your help in this matter.
