Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
Something New Under the Sun. It’s the Bell Solar Battery, made of thin discs of specially treated silicon, an ingredient of common sand. It converts the sun’s rays directly into usable amounts of electricity. Simple and trouble-free. (The storage batteries beside the solar battery store up its electricity for night use.)
Bell System Solar Battery Converts Sun's Rays into Electricity!
Bell Telephone Laboratories invention has great
possibilities for telephone service and for all mankind
Ever since Archimedes, men have been
searching for the secret of the sun.
For it is known that the same kindly rays that
help the flowers and the grains and the fruits
to grow also send us almost limitless power.
It is nearly as much every three days as in
all known reserves of coal, oil and uranium.
If this energy could be put to use - there
would be enough to turn every wheel and light
every lamp that mankind would ever need.
The dream of ages has been brought closer
by the Bell System Solar Battery. It was invented
at the Bell Telephone Laboratories after
long research and first announced in 1954.
Since then its efficiency has been doubled and
its usefulness extended.
There’s still much to be done before the
battery's possibilities in telephony and for
other uses are fully developed. But a good and
pioneering start has been made.
The progress so far is like the opening of a
door through which we can glimpse exciting
new things for the future. Great benefits for
telephone users and for all mankind may come
from this forward step in putting the energy
of the sun to practical use.
