Electronics-Themed Comics February 1952 and
January 1953 Radio & Television News
These three electronics-themed comics appeared in circa 1952 and 1953 Radio &
Television News magazine. For some reason the early 50s were a little comic
challenged, that is to say only one or two usually appeared in each edition. I really like the one with the guy hanging from the antenna!
He needs the rotator to turn him back over the roof. You probably
have to have lived in the vacuum tube TV era to appreciate the humor in the comic
with the homeowners rolling out the red carpet for the repairman. It's hard to make out the artists' names, but they have appeared on other comics
of the era. If you enjoy comics like this, there is a growing list of other comics
at the bottom of the page you can check out.
Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early
electronics. See articles from Radio & Television News, published 1919-1959. All copyrights hereby

some).
