The elderly gentleman - his hair was quite white now - slowly shook his head, as he murmured again: "It can't be done, Tom! It can't be done! I admit that you've made a lot of wonderful things - things I never dreamed of - but this is too much. To transmit pictures over a telephone wire, so that persons cannot only see to whom they are talking, as well as hear them - well, to be frank with you, Tom, I should be sorry to see you waste your time trying to invent such a thing."

About this title

About the Author

Victor Appleton was a house pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate and its successors, most famous for being associated with the Tom Swift series of books. Created by Edward Stratemeyer, the Stratemeyer Syndicate was the first book packager to have its books aimed at children, rather than adults. The Syndicate was wildly successful; at one time it was believed that the overwhelming majority of the books children read in the USA were Stratemeyer Syndicate books, based on a 1922 study of over 36,000 children country-wide.
