Nikola Tesla, the brilliant inventor whose experiments electrified the world, had a flair for the dramatic—so it's fitting that the letterhead for his company, founded in 1895, should be equally spectacular. At its centre stands Wardenclyffe Tower, an imposing monument to Tesla’s bold dream of broadcasting wireless power and communication across the globe—a project ultimately abandoned when funding ran dry. Surrounding it are some groundbreaking inventions, clockwise from top-left: Oscillation Transformer, Telautomaton, Steam & Gas Turbine, Induction Motor. Tesla used a few different letterheads over the years, but this was by far the most eye-catching.

A positively electrifying letterhead!
Beautiful. I adore Tesla.
