Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Popular Electronics, published October 1954 - April 1985. All copyrights are hereby acknowledged.

Hallicrafters was founded in Chicago in 1932 by William J. Halligan. He formed the company name based on a combination of Halli(gan) and (hand)crafters - clever, non? Since Hallicrafters made radio gear for commercial, amateur radio, and military applications, their advertisements appeared in most of the major electronics magazines of the time - QST, Popular Electronics, Radio & Television News, etc. It is interesting to see how product physical appearances changes over the years as user preference, materials, and technologies evolve. Knobs, dials, and toggles switches have been largely replaced by pushbuttons nowadays. This full-page ad appeared in the February, 1970 issue of Popular Electronics.
