The history of practical television began in late 1927. This magazine is the first journal devoted strictly to this medium. There were earlier magazines which included an article or two on the coming wonders, mostly in the radio field. An American journal with the same title was published for a scant 2 issues (Gernsback, Experimental Publishing). Articles include 'Short Waves and Television', 'How to Make a Simple Television'. 'The General Electric Company's Recent Television Experiments in America', as well as other technical articles.
