Edouard Belin (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Art Siegel said:
    "Édouard Belin (5 March 1876 – 4 March 1963) was a French photographer and inventor. In 1907 Belin invented a phototelegraphic apparatus called the Bélinographe (télestéréographe)—a system for receiving photographs over telephone wires via telegraphic networks. Belin's invention had been used for journalistic photos since 1914, and the process was improved by 1921 to enable transmission of images by radio waves." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89douard_Belin A tightly cropped version of this photo was published in the Wilmington, Del. Evening journal, January 18, 1923 with the caption "WIRELESS PHOTOS — Edouard Belin, inventor of the process of sending pictures by radio, arrives in New York" chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85042354/1923-01-18/ed-...

    Art Siegel Fascinating process and apt to find Belin's photograph in a collection of press photos! We'll make a note in the catalog record.

Murenjo, 1905-10 , French warship, printed 1905-10

from State Library of New South Wales

  • David Redfearn said:
    I am confused. The title and the flag tell me it's a French warship but then in the text below it says it is a Japanese battleship.
  • State Library of New South Wales said:
    sorry was a caption for one of the other postcard - forgot to delete . Thanks for the heads up.

    Spot the differences! 'Marengo' in 1872 via Anton (Ton) Wegman History and details - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_ironclad_Marengo "She was sold for scrap in 1896." which implies the 1905-10 dates are not quite shipshape, unless they refer to a posted date.
