This rare and fragile old catalog provides an insight into the almost forgotten world of telegraphy.  Hundreds of line drawings, methods for learning Morse writing and reading, scientific information, prices, and charts are all included.
This amazing catalog covers almost everything needed to learn telegraphy, and set up a small telegraph office.  It includes everything from the actual telegraph equipment to doorknobs, glass insulators, buzzers, bells, permanent magnets, galvanometers, Edison miniature lamps and much much  more.
This catalog is simply amazing..........."The telegraph consists in a combination of four things, namely:  A battery, a line wire, a transmitting key and an electromagnetic apparatus, which gives out in sounds or sounding strokes all the signals which are made by pulsations of that current from a distant point."
