While I was in Florence, Italy this spring I noticed a stone tablet high up on the wall of a building proclaimig Antonio Meucci as the inventor of the telephone. I wondered about this and took a picture of the placard. Unfortunately neither the camera nor the photographer were up to the assignment. (I'll have to go back to Isaac's School of Photography!
) My crappy pic is attached.
I just ran across this pic and decided to do a bit of Google research. Antonio Meucci has been credited with being the
inventor of the telephone. A bit more about Antonio! Viva Italia!
