Synopsis
Mid-twentieth century table radios made primarily of brightly colored plastic represent a relative newcomer to the radio collecting arena. With designs that often resembled contemporary automobile grille and headlight configurations, these affordable radios were made by the major electronics companies as well as dozens of others with lesser known names.These examples of American industrial design and popular culture were once plentiful, and today they can be found at flea markets, garage and house sales, secondhand stores, and "antique" shops specializing in modern design. Colorful and collectible, mid-century table radios are both available and affordable. With more than 430 full color photographs of radios, plus advertisements and black and white vintage photos, this pioneering book is a must for anyone interested in radios, mid-century industrial design, or popular culture., Mid-twentieth century table radios made primarily of brightly colored plastic represent a relative newcomer to the radio collecting arena.

- p***s (1130)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller! The very old book was received and was in new condition--much better than described. The price was great for such a special old book and the shipping charge was normal. The book was packaged very well in a padded envelope. I'm very satisfied. Thank you!Reply from: grassland_outpost- Feedback replied by seller grassland_outpost.- Feedback replied by seller grassland_outpost.Thanks for the kind words. Evaluating book condition is difficult and being a bookworm I tend to see every little flaw. Very happy you are pleased and that another old paperback gets a new home.Sams Photofact Tape Recorder Series TR-51 to TR-75 *Select Volume* (Acceptable) (#156860672053)
- v***s (186)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseShipped quick, arrived ahead of schedule, safely packed. Best deal on eBay from a great seller for over 25 years. The item was better than described as the seller included extra capacitors that are the type I'm gathering for vintage tube equipment restoration. Vacuum tubes were completely dismissed by the time I started college. A family friend gave me a vintage copy of the Radio Handbook and some US Navy training manuals on tube circuits and I've gained a new appreciation for tubes.
