A newspaper transmitted thru the airwaves...



Item # 701763

December 14, 1938

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH, Missouri, Dec.14, 1938  As noted in the masthead: "By Radio from Station W9XZY". We believe this "newspaper" was actually sent by teletype, a crude & early version of a fax. This is the volume 1, number 8 issue.
Nine pages, 9 by 8 1/2 inches, each blank on the reverse, stapled together, printed on a thin-quality newsprint. Old tape stains, mostly at the corner, otherwise good condition.

Item from last month's catalog - #359 released for October, 2025
