Room 15

An academic demonstration. From left to right in front of a table of electronic devices: Fournier D'Albe in bow-tie and suit stares towards the camera with hand protectively on the Exploring Optophone box. Mr. Arthur Burrows, director of programmes of the British Broadcasting Company, holds a lit match. Mr. B, wearing headset, points the exploring Optophone at the burning match. Behind this three other gentlemen stand at awkward angles to make sure they are also in the photo.
