EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an HMV television set from the 1950s, featuring an Emiscope tube. The sleek television cabinet, adorned with elegant doors, houses the bulky technology within. The screen, though small by today's standards, emits a warm, inviting glow, ready to broadcast programmes and transport viewers to new worlds. The Emiscope tube, a precursor to the more common cathode ray tube, is evident in the foreground. Its distinctive shape and intricate design add to the overall aesthetic appeal of the television. The image is further enhanced by the presence of an HMV advertisement on the cabinet, showcasing the iconic dog logo and the tagline "The Master's Voice." This television set, a symbol of the 1950s home and domestic life, would have been a prized possession for many families during this era. The price of 178 guineas, equivalent to several weeks' wages for the average worker, underscores the luxury and exclusivity of owning such a device. The photograph, taken in 1951 or 1952, evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back to a time when television was a novelty and a source of entertainment for all ages. The image, captured by Terry Parker, is a testament to the enduring allure of television and its ability to bring people together, even as technology continues to evolve.
