Do you have the stuff published in Beograd in the 50's and early 50's? I could scan thst, or you could wrirte to them and whats left at the museum today.

Origin of this would need work to find.

The search has narrowed to just this photo.

A scan of a good version in a book would be very helpful:

I just googled 'nikola tesla' and searched 'images'.
I immediately got several images of much higher resolution.

Did you not even bother ?

The image that you posted as "narrowed down to .." appears similar to the art on the front cover of: Cheney, M. Tesla: Man out of his time. DELL, New York (1983)

Thanks for the help.

I found all the best Google had a couple of weeks ago.
I've also searched with TinEye for larger versions.
