Marconi Archive

Some time ago, I was interested in any documents or artefacts of Marconi's station at Cefn Du, near Caernarfon, North Wales.


A large archive of material from the Marconi era was handed over to the History of Science Museum, Oxford some years ago.  Someone who is a tour guide at Oxford wanted a 6m sked with me yesterday, and so he obviosuly reminded me of the Marconi material.

By now, the archive has been digitised such that you can spend a happy hour looking at high-resolution images of endless pieces of radio ephemera.
