Scottish Engineer and Television Innovator John Logie Baird Testing Television Transmitting Equipment, 1920s. '...[With] their crude aerials with primitive equipment, the engineers of Baird were dabbling in, for those days, a real far-fetched realm of science - television. Sending pictures as well as sound by means of radio waves - what an absurdity! In any case, such a device could never have the slightest effect on the motion picture trade, could it? Not a chance!' From "Time To Remember - Came The Dawn", 1925 (Reel 4); peek at the British Film Industry of the 1920s - clips from great silent films and newsreels.
