Of course, this has to be taken with a huge grain of salt. "General" Sarnoff sits there and claims that Vladimir Zworkyin "invented" electronic television. But Philo Farnsworth really did that. Zworykin's claim to invention has about as much validity as Sarnoff's claim to having been a General!
But still, there is a lot of interesting info amidst the RCA propaganda. Again, it is really striking how far they had come before WWII put things on hold for four years.
