Wirephoto switchboard and transmitting machine, Los Angeles, 1935

Description:
One man stands at left in front of a large three paneled switch board, holding a telephone receiver to his ear. A second man stands at a machine that captures and transmits photographic images. An original print photograph has been wrapped around a horizontal cylinder attached to the apparatus. The machine was designed to scan photographs and convert their light and dark tones into signals that are carried over telephone or telegraph wire. The machine at foreground holds a slightly different cylinder than the first, and is likely used to receive images. Here, signals transmitted from other locations would be converted back into light, then recorded on a negative contained inside the cylinder, thus reproducing original photographs sent from any location connected through the wire network.
