Bells laboratory. Reconstruction of the Boston laboratory of Scottish-US inventor and telephone pioneer Alexander Graham Bell (1847-1922). Set up in rented space on the fifth floor of 109 Court Street, Boston, Massachusetts, USA (demolished in the 1920s), it was here that the famous telephone call to his assistant Watson took place on 10 March 1876. A painting shows the view from the window at the time. On the workbench are patent applications, and reference materials on hearing, sound and electricity. This display, in the lobby of the 1940s Verizon Building, was removed when the building was sold in 2008

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the reconstructed laboratory of Alexander Graham Bell, a Scottish-US inventor and telephone pioneer. Located on the fifth floor of 109 Court Street in Boston, Massachusetts (now demolished), this space served as Bell's renowned laboratory where he made history with the first telephone call to his assistant Watson on March 10,1876. The painting displayed within the lab offers a glimpse into the view from its window during that significant moment. The photograph captures an array of fascinating elements within Bell's laboratory. On the workbench lie patent applications and reference materials related to hearing, sound, and electricity – testaments to Bell's relentless pursuit of scientific innovation. This display was once housed in the lobby of Verizon Building in the 1940s but was unfortunately removed when it changed ownership in 2008. Stepping back into time through this image, one can appreciate both the technological advancements and cultural significance associated with Bell's achievements. The reconstruction provides us with a physical representation of his lab and allows us to delve into his world at a pivotal point in history. From models illustrating telecommunication principles to books on physics and patents dating back to the late 1800s, every detail speaks volumes about human ingenuity and our quest for progress. This artwork is not only a testament to Alexander Graham Bell's legacy but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those early days of communication technology.
