The thought itself was first proposed by Marconi, Wells, and many other writers through the 19th and early 20th centuries. German John Paul Nipkow developed a rotating-disc technology to transmit pictures over a wire in 1884. Charles Francis Jenkins and John Logie Baird separately created the cathode-ray tube in both Germany and England, German scientist Karl Braun invented the cathode ray tube oscilloscope (CRT) in 1897. Vladimir Kosma Zworykin invented kinescope in 1929, about the same time Philo T. Farnsworth at the age of 13 created the original system of television transmission we use today.

I think it was about 1950. I remember watching the coronation of Queen Elizabeth on TV in 1953, and that was about the first years it was really available to the public.

Regular network broadcasting began in the United States in 1946, and television became common in American homes by the middle 1950s.......Flo
