It is remarkable to think that only a few dozens of years ago, the wireless communication was equated to a miracle and that near-every household was connected by a wire. These pictures of New York and Stockholm date to late 19th century before these telephone wires were berried underground away from the elements, but they are still an excellent illustration of human drive to stay in touch with each other. One could only wish there was a way to visualize the wireless connections that are all around us now.
