Original 19th Century Thomas Edison-Designed Universal Stock Ticker — Low Serial #441
Rare universal stock ticker designed by Thomas Edison in 1871, which revolutionized Wall Street by synchronizing stock prices across all exchange companies, allowing for exponential efficiencies of scale in the financial markets.
