Born in Beaver, Utah, Philo T. Farnsworth (1906-1971) devised a method for creating electronic television. He created a television camera tube in 1927 called an image dissector. The image dissector produced an electronic signal that corresponded to the brightness of objects being televised. This little-known American inventor was one of the most important pioneers in television technology. In his later life, Farnsworth became involved in research on radar and nuclear energy.

    On July 1, 1847, the first US postage stamps went on sale.  The 5¢ issue of 1847 (US #1) features a portrait of Benjamin Franklin, the man responsible for organizing America's postal service back in the 1700s.  Postal clerks used scissors to cut the stamps from sheets, as perforations weren't in use yet.  Today, US #1 is a valued piece of American postal history and a lucky find in any condition.
