‎Rare first edition of Taylor’s work on a sermon delivered by Peter, which is described as the first general calling of the Gentiles (non-Jewish people) and was preached before Cornelius referring to the biblical account found in the New Testament book of Acts, chapter 10, where Peter preaches to Cornelius, a Roman centurion, and his household, leading to the conversion of Gentiles to Christianity. Thomas Taylor (1576–1632) was an English clergyman and academic known for his involvement in religious and theological matters during the early 17th century. He served as the rector of St. Mary Aldermanbury in London and was also associated with Pembroke College, Cambridge.‎

‎First printing of this seminal paper in which the push-button telephone is first described. Push-button telephony was considered a revolution within telecommunication. It replaced rotary dial telephones that had been in use since 1891 and the technique behind the touch-tone format is today used for all cell phones.The first prototypes were invented in 1941 by the Bell System, these were, however, never fully functional and therefore not brought to the commercial market. The research was shelved during WWII and was not prioritized until later, after the transistor had been developed and tones could be produced with electronic oscillators in the late 1950ies. The first push-button telephone reached the commercial market in 1963, though in the mid 1970ies the majority of phone users still had rotary phones.The issue contains the following papers:1.
