Paige recently discovered that there was a demonstration of television at the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition in Dallas. He is still researching the demonstration, and as he sends us more information, we will post it here. Please contact us if you have any information on the Texas Centennial or on TV exhibits elsewhere. Here is more early television in Texas and information about an early Fort Worth station. Here is the information from Mr. Paige:
The exhibit was by U. A. Sanabria, the chief engineer of the Western Television Co., who did demonstrations of large screen TV all over the country in 1933-36. This is from the August 31, 1935 issue of the Dallas Morning News:
The demonstration was called a Television Telephone, and pictures were sent over telephone lines. One use of the system was described in the Dallas Morning News in July of 1936; to identify criminals by sending their pictures from one police department to another:
