Sorry, I misremembered. 1880s. TV didn't start with the Iconoscope and it
didn't become wireless until the 1920s, but it existed long before that.
There's a history of television being shown on The Science Channel that has
a good deal of early history that you don't see on most sites discussing
the history of television.
