Should/shouldn't this entry be moved to Teledyne Technologies? --Ninly 20:50, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I recall seeing a pool water heater which had "TELEDYNE LAARS" on it. Since I don't know if this subdivision of the company is still extant today, please revert my edit if necessary. --24.84.68.71 04:25, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

I was given some stock in Teledyne in the 1960's and am trying to figure out the cost basis -- anyone know how to find the stock price back in 1965? 209.6.214.13 (talk) 02:16, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Don Milton

While the Time article linked from the Singleton article on Wikipedia seems to be the source for the statement that the company was founded in 1960, I found a New York Times article from November 22, 1967 Archives (available in PDF to subscribers) which states that "sales and earnings of Teledyn [sic], Inc., an electronics manufacturer, rose to new records in 1967 for the 17th consecutive year, it was announced in Hawthorne, Calif." The title of the article spells the name correctly. Given that this was a mere few line blerb, and the Time piece was extensive, I suspect that the typesetter at the NYT added 10 years to the company's life line.
