Broadcast Television Installations from the Early 1940s through the 1950s

A “slide show” of broadcast television installations from the early 1940s through the 1950s. (There may be one or two shots of late 30s installations, but most pictures are from the early 40s on). The pictures are not limited to studios, but show kinescope machines, Dumont manufacturing facilities, control rooms, remote vans, buses, etc. from that time period. Many of these pictures have not been published or distributed widely.
