Before Meucci and Graham Bell there was the illustrious Florentine inventor Innocenzo Manzetti. Credited with the invention of a predecessor of the telephone and the télégraph parlant
in addition to a steam-powered car, a hydraulic water pump and a dazzling automaton playing the flute! Sadly, the prohibitive costs precluded him from obtaining the necessary patents, and hence the burden is on us to give him his proper placement amongst the great innovators in history. Today we celebrate the birth and life of the Florentine inventor and urge you visit Aosta to experience his automotan and other creations in a permanent exhibit in the Centro Saint Béninin.
