Abstract
As already recorded in Nature (May 3, 1947, p. 598), it is just fifty years ago that Marconi gave the first successful demonstration of wireless signalling t in Great Britain. The fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of the Marconi Company was on July 20, and to mark the occasion a souvenir brochure was produced (“Jubilee Year, The Marconi Company.” Pp. 58. Published by Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Co., Ltd., Chelmsford, 1947). This volume provides a brief and very interesting account of the development of wireless signlling by the Company, from the first practical transmissions over a few miles to the achievements attained in the fields of broadcasting, television and radar. The brochure is profusely illustrated by a large number of excellent photographs, many of which have a unique historical interest.
