Television Magazine - 1928 - Hugo Gernsback

Description:

Television Magazine edited by Hugo Gernsback. Vol. 1, No. 2. Experimenter Publishing Company, 16 July 1928.

Very scarce early television magazine published by Hugo Gernsback--the father of modern science fiction--from his WRNY studio in New York City. (Much less common than Gernsback's "All About Television.")

Gernsback only published two issues of this magazine before his Experimenter Publishing Company was taken over by creditors. This is the second, and last, issue. Loaded with line drawings, schematics and photos.

Said to contain the first published guidance on how to build a television set. "This issue of TELEVISION contains the first clear directions as to how to build a Television set. . . ." Includes "Television is Here" by Gernsback and a number of other articles:

How to Build a Television Receiver by Fred H. Canfield
