US174465A was filed on 14 February 1876, hours before a rival application, making it one of the most contested patents in history. The original drawings show the diaphragm, coil and armature of the first electromagnetic telephone with the precision of a working blueprint. The vectorised artwork preserves every annotation line and hatched section, translated into a two-fill structure so the drawing remains readable in any color pair. Hanging this piece is an invitation to explain exactly how the telephone actually works.
Printed on 200 gsm uncoated fine-art paper using pigment inks. Framed prints use a wood frame in your chosen color finish; canvas prints are stretched on a slim FSC-certified wood frame. Made to order; no off-the-shelf stock.
