| Philo T. Farnsworth State Historical Marker Installed in Springfield Township |
|
|
In September, STHS proudly dedicated the first official state historical marker to be installed in Springfield Township. The marker, located across from Laurel Beech Park on Mermaid Lane in Wyndmoor, commemorates Philo T. Farnsworth, inventor of the electronic television and the site of his former station, W3XPF, where some of the first experiments in live local television broadcasting were undertaken in the 1930s.
