‎Television Haussler William; National Broadcasting Company‎

‎A Collection of Thirty-Four Photographs Relating to the First Broadcasts of NBC Television c. 1937-1940‎

‎New York: RCA Corporation 1940. Very Good. In the late 1930s television was in its experimental phase and radio dominated the American media landscape. RCA and its NBC network directed experimental broadcasts from their studio in Radio City broadcasting from a transmitter at the top of the Empire State Building. The first large scale exposure the American public had to the new technology was at the 1939 World's Fair. NBC and its parent company RCA initiated a schedule of programming the same year to coincide with the exhibition. The onset of war the expense of the new machines and the limited geographic range of the broadcast limited the amount of television consumers until after the war. RCA's involvement in the development of television began in 1929 when the inventor Vladimir Zworykin convinced RCA's David Sarnoff to produce a commercial version of his prototype system. Sarnoff and RCA would eventually invest millions of dollars in the project. The present collection shows this development at the tail end when the technology was near completion and RCA had begun to promote the new technology in earnest. The first broadcasts were on W2XBS which would later become WNBC Channel 4 broadcasting from the Empire State Building transmitter at the top of the building. RCA began selling its TRK-5 and TRK-9 model televisions at the same point but the onset of the war and FCC involvement prevented the mass rollout the company had imagined. Of the thirty-six images here thirty are from the NBC archives mounted on linen and most with large labels to versos explaining the pictures. Many are credited to NBC staff photographer William Haussler. The NBC photographers tried to capitalize on the look of the modern era with the photos and the labels direct the conversation as such. One reads: "Modern Art / If this picture appears to be an example of ultra modern photography there is good reason. It has to do with television most modern of the arts." The photos show the facilities at Radio City and the Empire State Building. The new technology is on full display with the Iconoscope Camera shown in one image and various transmitters microphones and other pieces of equipment shown in others. One image at the Radio City studios shows Lanny Ross another shows the composer Walter Damrosch seated at a piano. The last few photographs - these without the internal NBC markings - show the first series of broadcasts from afar some showing the United Airlines-equipped Research ship in its journey over Manhattan another showing the Billy Soose boxing match of 1941 in Madison Square Garden. Another image printed in the 1950s shows the first ever NBC telecast in 1930 a single close-up of a Felix the Cat doll. A scarce collection and significant documentation of the early television age in America. We find no record of these images in the Getty NBC-Universal archive. Photographs generally well preserved in very good condition with some stray marks on versos overall quite well preserved. RCA Corporation unknown‎

‎UNIDENTIFIED RADIO OPERATOR‎

‎1952 ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN ACCOUNT OF A SAILOR ON THE USS �NOA� DD-841 AS IT SAILED FROM AMERICA TO UNDERTAKE A WHIRLWIND TOUR OF VARIOUS EUROPEAN PORTS EXERCISING DRILLS AND PROTECTING AMERICAN INTERESTS‎

‎ABOARD THE USS NOA. Very Good. 1952. On offer is a short but fascinating account of the 1st-class Military ship a destroyer the USS Noa. The USS Noa DD-841 was a Gearing-class destroyer in the United States Navy following World War I. She was named for Midshipman Loveman Noa. This diary contains only 15 handwritten pages yet it still manages to provide a thoroughly interesting and detailed look into a member of the USS Noa. The year the diary was written is not apparent but but it can reasonably be believed to be 1952. One of the entries states that the writer made calls to Brigadier General E. J. McGaw Commander of the Iceland Defence Force which came into being in 1951. Another search revealed another book from a sailor on the USS Noa which corroborated the places/dates and put it as the year 1952. The entries are incredibly interesting to say the least. The author�s name and position on the ship are unknown. Judging by the content of the book I believe the author is some kind of radio operator as he writes often of sending communications throughout the diary. However there are instances of him going to lunch with higher ranked officials attending a Garden Party at the Royal Barracks in England and generally meeting with people of higher Naval ranks. There is a chance he is was a Non-Commissioned Officer. During the course of the diary the ship's goes through a number of different Ports of Call: Reykjavik Iceland Londonderry Ireland Plymouth and Newcastle England Hamburg and finally Bremerhaven Germany. The diary ends on June 25th while in the port of Bremerhaven. This diary presents a fantastic amount of information about the duties of this particular sailor on the USS Noa. His entries are thorough and detailed and fascinating for anyone interested in WW2 and post-WW2 life on a destroyer. The book is in very good condition. The covers and spine are free of any major aesthetic or structural problems. The diary measures about 5 1/4� x 8�. The book itself is probably close to 75 pages in length with 15 of those pages having writing in them. The pages are in good condition with no discoloration or rips/tears. The handwriting is legible throughout in black ink. TEXT: �April 22nd & 23rd Benham with K/V with Noa at 1730 R and formed 1350 relative. TE set course for Argentina Newfoundland.�; �April 23.
