 Posted: Wed May 27, 2009 1:23 pm Post subject: State of the art - then and now |
 |
|
I'm in possession of several issues of the Electrical
Experimenter circa 1916. This hobbyist/amateur/semi-
professional publication offered a newsstand source
for both understanding and state of the art news in
a range of technologies.
I'm using one of these magazines as reference for a
science history presentation I'm doing. I've scanned it
for sharing and thought I would post it for those
having an interest in such things. See:

It's interesting to see the depth and scope of interests
illustrated on these pages. It's also interesting to
see a level of hucksterism and quackery not unlike
that which pours forth in today's video and print media!
See pdf pages 7, 25, 62 (violet rays), 65 (Pandiculator).
But the casually discriminating eye can easily identify
and appreciate the good stuff of which there is plenty.
Hope you enjoy browsing this piece of technological history.
