Nice find! Although the PDF is great, it contains too many reminders of just what this nation used to be..filled with all kinds of industry and manufacturing companies, recording a time when we did do more than just make paper clips and toothpicks from imported raw materials.

It's a great read! However somewhat depressing given today's broadcast radio environment.

Interesting find. The article about the need for regulation of the airwaves has many of the same ideas that we hear today about regulation of communications.

The adds are interesting, especially the prices. In 1922 one dollar had the buying power of 13 dollars today. That would put the cost of the advertised batteries out of my reach.

History trivia question: Who is now credited for the invention of radio?

Ans: Nicola Tesla
