A question: old console radios manufacturing quantities
#13

Morzh,

Check out americanradiohistory.com.  Under "Early Radio - Science" section, select Radio Today.  You'll see a grid of all the issues, choose January 1938.  Pages 9 & 63 thru 68 have some stats but not overly specific.  As Ron mentioned, Radio Retailing would probably have more info, but it isn't available free on-line.  There is a fellow out there who'll sell youall the issues on DVD, don't remember who that was. And our good friend Alan Douglas is correct, there was nothing to gain by publishing them in that era.  Business was cut throat.  Joe
