His two books are just breath-taking - and show that US radio manufacturers had style very much at heart when they designed plastic cases for their radios in the 1930's and onward. I have enormous respect for what they were able to do to combine functionality with looks. The colours were fantastic (though I am not sure that they would pass today's health and safety rules on the use of heavy metals. I'm guessing the bright yellow colours, for instance, must be as a result of cadmium. But none of this detracts from the book....something that would actually look beautiful on an iPad or a Kindle Fire. Highly recommended." / "I have never seen radios look so good, and I am a collector. You will want to rip every one of the pages out and frame them.
These are mainly of the tabletop marbelized colored-plastic radios of the 1930's and 40's - the most good-looking of all the table radios, Ever. Catalin, bakelite, plaskon, and whatever other brand names they had for the plastics of the day - all seem to be represented." --- GLÖM INTE ATT TITTA PÅ MINA ANDRA ANNONSER!. Nyskick.
