You'd have to wonder at the connection between the Radio Station and the trophy on the board? He seems very proud of it and is obviously being very protective.

Story of the wireless icongraph ( a sort of early fax machine) from New York times of 1912. "YOUNG INVENTOR'S SUCCESS.; Patents Granted to Italian for His "Wireless Iconograph." Special Correspondence THE NEW YORK TIMES. July 14, 1912, Sunday LONDON, July 2. -- The Milan correspondent of The Daily Chronicle sends some interesting details of the life of Francesco de Bernocchi, the young Italian scientist who has invented the "wireless iconograph," which will transmit messages, sketches, autographs, shorthand, and other signs." Unfortunately it appears you have to pay to read the rest of the story... at query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9500E5DD123CE633A... NYTimes also has a other story a few days later direct from Italy WIRELESS DEVICE SENDS HANDWRITING; The Iconograph Also Reproduces Shorthand and Cryptograms Between Milan and Turin. See query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9D03E0D81F31E233A... Meanwhile Amazon is flogging originals at 137$... www.amazon.com/Newswire-Photo-Bermocchi-wireless-iconogra...

Thanks Shapesoftime. Good information. And on Amazon, that's probably not an original, it's probably being sold by a person who has downloaded the high resolution image at the LOC and then prints to order. There's plenty of people piggy-backing their vintage photo sales operations on the images from the Library of Congress.
