Auction History Result MURDER BY TELEVISION style A 1/2sh Appears in Hershenson Pressbook CollectionThe image at right is provided for reference purposes and we do not we have it available for purchase, nor do we know of anyone who does! Murder By Television, the 1935 Clifford Sanforth TV murder mystery crime horror thriller (about an inventor of a new method by which television signals can be instantaneously sent anywhere in the world) starring Bela Lugosi, June Collyer, Huntley Gordon, George Meeker, Henry Mowbray, Hattie McDaniel, and Charles Hill Mailes. Note of course that television was in its infancy in 1935, and that the public was fascinated by it. Surprisingly, it did not "catch on" in any meaningful way throughout the 1930s and most of the 1940s, partially because the technology did not yet exist to transmit television signals long distances, and partially because it required lots of people owning enough TVs to warrant building transmitters and creating TV shows, but lots of people wouldn't buy TVs until there were lots of TV shows to watch, and this did not get solved until the early 1950s, over 15 years after this movie was made!
