2nd edition (1st edition thus) updated 1931.

Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons Ltd

 

Signed to front-end paper by Sydney Moseley (co-author) who was the first voice to be heard on BBC public broadcast introducing the proceedings on the 30th September 1929. Also signed to the front-end paper by the inventor of television (who wrote the book’s forward), John Logie Baird with an inscription ‘to a bull.’

 

Extraordinary book written during the early days of television and just a few months after the first BBC public broadcast. Barton Chapple worked for the Baird company as a publicist and engineer and Sydney Moseley was a journalist and friend of Logie Baird's. This is as close to a manifesto of intention and his invention that Logie Baird came too.

 

A very good tight and clean book internally sound no foxing. The boards are bright with bright gilt titles. Page block has minor dust marking and tiny ink mark to bottom of page block. Overall a very good book indeed. The book has had a custom-made Solander box by leading British book binder Martin Frost who has used acid free materials.

 

‘Television To-day And To-morrow’ by Moseley/ Chapel, signed by John Logie Baird
