Electronics-Themed Comics
October 1951 Radio & Television News

October 1951 Radio & TV News
Octoberl 1951 Radio & Television News Cover - RF Cafe[Table of Contents]

Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Radio & Television News, published 1919-1959. All copyrights hereby acknowledged.

Here, for your Monday, beginning-of-the-work-week enjoyment, are a couple electronics-themed comics that appeared in the October 1951 edition of Radio & Television News. When is the last time you saw a comic in a technical magazine? Note the AC power cod attached to the 'portable' television. Nowadays, a person would have a smartphone, tablet, or notebook computer while on the can. There is a list of other comics at the bottom of the page.
