Imagine getting up in the morning and picking up a freshly printed 
newspaper from your broadcast receiver. That technology was available in 
the 1930s!

Broadcast stations transmitted FAX signals to home receivers after 
midnight when they would normally be off the air.

This article talks about a narrow printer, but we have FAX newspaper 
printouts at the AWA Museum that are closer to the size of regular papers.

Have fun,
