One of my uncles bought this old tube radio in 1954. It is still in working order and has a great sound! But here is an interesting question: Why did he buy the radio – a very expensive item – in 1954? He had a very good reason – the answer will be on the next post 🙂


Wegen der Fussballweltmeisterschaft (in Bern, Deutschland wurde Weltmeister)!
Congratulations Sabina – You are correct – My uncle bought the radio to be able to listen to all the coverage of the Football World Championship in Switzerland together with all his football friends from the village.
