Description

Marconi on the 'Telegraphone'—"It may possibly be of use to me in my experiments"

TLS signed “G. Marconi,” one page, 8.25 x 11, January 21, 1902. Letter to T. C. Martin of the Electrical World & Engineer, in part: "Yesterday I had the pleasure of inspecting the 'Telegraphone.' I think it may possibly be of use to me in my experiments. As soon as I get back to England, I hope to write to Mr. D. McFarland Moore in connection with some features of his work, with a view to a possible utilization of his device in Wireless Telegraphy. I regret not having been very well lately, and that has prevented me from replying so far to a number of very kind letters I have received from members of the Electrical profession." In very good to fine condition, with creasing, somewhat irregular toning, chipping to the brittle edges, and splitting to the ends of the central horizontal fold.
