I hung this print up in the office a few minutes ago.  It was a gift from a client that I've done 5-6 projects with.

Every project she comments about all the wiring that's going in and always asks "Isn't all this stuff wireless now.  I heard/read/saw about this new wireless technology so where is it?".

The print is a reproduction from 1913 and states "Wireless World".  She gave it to me at the end of the last project and wanted to know why all my stuff still needs wires when it was a wireless world 100 years ago!


A bit of info from Wiki if your interested.

The Marconi Company published the first issue of the journal The Marconigraph In April 1911. It was the first journal written especially for wireless communication and circulated largely among engineers and operators.

In 1913 the name was changed to The Wireless World and in April the first issue was sold on news-stands.

From April 1922 it was known as The Radio Review. This journal was first published October 1919 and ended as part of The Wireless World.

The title was changed in September 1984 to Electronics and Wireless World, and later to Electronics World.
I guarantee I'll tell you the truth and I guarantee I'll tell you what you need to know but I can't guarantee that I'll be telling you anything you want to hear.
