Marconi Collection now on-line

Dear Colleagues and Readers,

 

The unique Marconi Collection housed at Chelmsford UK, has never before been available to the public, until now.

This digital archive draws from the Collection and concentrates on the first 50 years of wireless from 1896 to 1946. It covers an important cross section of early equipment and experiments and contains a large collection of documents, around 700 photographs and 500 pieces of ephemera.
