1927 | September 7 – American engineer Philo T. Farnsworth transmitted an electronic moving image – a barely visible line – to the delight of his technicians and investors.
Nine months earlier, on January 7, Farnsworth applied for a patent for the dissector tube, the basis of today’s all-electronic television, and received it three years later in August 1930.
We’ve extended access to our magnificent exhibit, “Forgotten Genius: The Boy Who invented Electronic TV”, curated by Phil Savenick of Los Angeles, California. Come and see some of the rarest, historic television artifacts on the planet. Don’t miss it! On display now for a limited time!
