These online MUSEUMS are dedicated to the PRESERVATION of TELEGRAPH and
SCIENTIFIC History, Lore, and Instrumentation:
These are no-frills museums designed for rapid and easy searching and
downloading to facilitate research by serious collectors and historians but
accessible to anyone who is interested in telegraph and scientific
instruments. As a telegraph operator and collector for over 50 years, I have
assembled a collection of over 3000 telegraph and scientific instruments and
photographs. I am always looking to acquire or photograph very old and
unusual keys and instruments!!
