John Handel (Baylor University) sits at a table in front of a flat-panel display featuring a PowerPoint slide entitled "Finance and the History of Science" The slide features an image of a Extel's Headquarters in Cornhill (as discussed in Handel's 2021 Enterprise & Society article, "The Material Politics of Finance: The Ticker Tape and the London Stock Exchange, 1860s-1890s") and two quotations.
