In November 2013 the Basili family from Altopascio (Lucca) donated to the Marconi Foundation a collection of antique radios – 64 pieces in total – belonging to Paolo Basili. Shortly before his death, Mr Basili had in fact expressed his intention of leaving to the Marconi Museum “the fruit of his lifelong passion”, as testified by his daughter Natàlia. On 25 April 2014, on the yearly occasion of the Marconi day, the donation was made official by Gabriele Falciasecca and Natàlia Basili.

Marconi was the right man in the right place at the right time. He was the right man because he had the ideal combination of personal characteristics for the job: persistence, daring, technical ability, charisma and flair for public relations. |
