The BAIRD
'TELEVISOR'

This is the age of science. Science has advanced in every direction. In the laboratory of the scientist, wireless telegraphy and broadcasting come to maturity. But in the later years of the last century such developments were only dreamed of. Is it because wireless, however wonderful, means no more than the transmission of sound?

The Baird Company presents to the public the very latest marvel – Television – the science of seeing through wire and wireless. It is amazing that a person sitting before the Baird transmitter can be seen thousands of miles away. Not a photograph, but an actual moving image of the subject can be seen and heard in any home fitted with the Baird ‘Televisor’ receiving apparatus.
