Item Details

Description

[TELEVISION - SELENIUM CAMERA]. [CAREY George R. (1851-1906), inventor]. Partially printed document, Milwaukee, 22 January 1881. 1 page, small 4to (279 x 216 mm), on pictorial Herold Company letterhead, accomplished in manuscript, old folds. The editor of the Daily & Weekly Herold, sends a document to Carey requesting his permission to send electrotypes of illustrations in Scientific American (5 June 1880), of the selenium camera and the instrument for transmitting of images (the first public mention of such inventions) to be featured in “Progress of the Age”. Carey’s “selenium camera,” in all its forms, is recognized by historians as an ancestor of both facsimile machines and television.
