Here are a couple more
electronics-themed comics from a 1940-era issue of Radio News magazine.
The scenarios depicted in these old comics are often based on the real-life
experiences of radio and electronics servicemen. No doubt many guys got
clobbered by high voltage or deafening audio when a customer decided to power up
a television or radio while being worked on in the home. When this comic with
the police car radio appeared in 1940, it had only been a decade since the first
2-way radios were being installed in patrol cars (see "A New Arm of the Law"). A huge
list of technology-themed comics is listed at the bottom of the page. Enjoy!
Electronics-Themed Comics
"Do you mind awfully if I turn it on while you are looking
it over?" (Page 20)
"Say, can't you fix this radio? It lets the police calls interfere
with the football scores!" (Page 21)
These Technically-Themed Comics Appeared in Vintage Electronics Magazines. I
personally scanned and posted every one from copies I own (and even colorized some).
275 pages as of 5/13/2026.
