The teleprinter was invented by my grandfather, Christopher Frederick Hilton, a captain in the Royal signals. When he passed his work on to his superiors, as he was required to do by army regulations, it was hijacked and he only received minimal credit. The original drawing has been framed and is at my son's house in Another Country.

The teleprinter evolved through a series of inventions by a number of engineers, including Royal Earl House, David Edward Hughes, Emile Baudot, Donald Murray, Charles L. Krum, Edward Kleinschmidt and Frederick G. Creed. Teleprinters were invented in order to send and receive messages without the need for operators trained in the use of Morse code. A system of two teleprinters, with one operator trained to use a typewriter, replaced two trained Morse code operators. The teleprinter system improved message speed and delivery time, making it possible for messages to be flashed across a country with little manual intervention. This began in 1846 with Royal Earl House patenting his printing telegraph through 1924 then Creed & Company, founded by Frederick G. Creed, entered the teleprinter field with their Model 1P. Additional minor improvements were invented from then into the 1960s.

Teleprinter code refers to the standardized character encoding used by teleprinters, which are electromechanical devices that transmit typed messages over communication lines. It enables the conversion of typed characters into electrical signals that can be sent and received, ensuring accurate communication between devices. The most common teleprinter codes are Baudot and ASCII, which facilitate the exchange of information in various fields, including journalism and military communications. This coding system was crucial for the effective transmission of text before the advent of modern digital communication technologies.
