SAVE THE GEC-MARCONI ARCHIVESsign the petition |

Although the auction has now been recalled (you can read all the chronology in VINTAGE NEWS) I am still keeping this page alive for historical reasons. This appeal was started by Yours truly on 30 January 1997.
In this way thousands of Marconi objects and documents which form "a unique collection which charts the history of radio from Marconi's arrival in England in 1896 through to the end of World War II (their words not mine -ed.)" is going to be dispersed all over the world and lost forever for future generations to see, study and enjoy.
If you think that the disposal of the GEC-Marconi archives by auction is wrong, then sign the petition! I will present the signatures to the GEC-Marconi Managing Director if and when they will reach a fair number. Thank you.
