1939: first electronic TV demonstration in Brazil
 

The History of television in Brazil can be traced back to 1933, when Professor Edgard Roquette Pinto ( who introduced radio broadcast in Brazil in 1922 ) did some mechanical TV experiments in Rio de Janeiro. In 1939 the German Post Office made the first electronic TV demonstration at the Rio de Janeiro Sample's Fair. The President of Brazil, Getúlio Vargas, attended the demonstration and even wrote about it briefly in his personnal diary ( which was published in 1995 ). Below there's part of the first page of the newspaper "A Noite" of June, 4, 1939, with an article about the demonstration:

Thanks

Thanks for sharing.

You guys are welcome.

If you could do a crop of the the writing from the bottom of the page. It's too small and I want to read it...
In 1939 we had a tv demonastration in Romania too.

Let me see if this works

It works. Besides the stuff with microphones, I think they sayed they used spotlights against a white background. White backround was important then, because in the pre-war days video cameras needed a lot of light to produce image.

Yep, it´s a Telefunken!:thmbsp:
