Description

BAIRD JOHN LOGIE: (1888-1946) Scottish Engineer and Inventor of the world's first working television system.

Brief T.L.S., J L Baird, one page, 8vo, Sydenham, 11th March 1937, to Lionel Armand Aucoin. Baird responds to his correspondent's letter and sends a signed photograph (no longer present). With blank integral leaf. Rare. EX

Baird demonstrated the first working television system on 26th January 1926 and, two years later, the Baird Television Development Company achieved the first transatlantic television transmission. Ranked number 44 in the BBC's list of the 100 Greatest Britons in 2002 and also named as one of the 10 greatest Scottish scientists in history, Baird's practical introduction of broadcast television for home entertainment have earned him a prominent place in television's history.
