Carbide Battery Radio from 1930's
#5

Hi, thank you for your reply. Our mother passed some years back but it was very interesting to listen to her stories of her childhood and of listening to the family radio. Most of the old folks have passed on so I doubt I will ever learn the radio model that my great-grandfather had. But my mothers love of and interest in the old radio has sparked our familys interest in old radios. I am trying to research the area mining camp stores to see what kinds or brands of radios they carried in that time period and perhaps I will be able to locate the radio model sold in that particular store in that time period, well hopefully anyway. Thank you, bigdog
