Here are a few examples of a very extensive collection of advertisements
for radios and other consumer electronics from magazines back in middle of the last century. Duke University has managed
to amass a huge number of magazine ads on their website in a feature called "Ad*Access." There are thousands
of high quality scans of magazine ads on topics like beauty and hygiene radios, radio parts, and radio programs, miscellaneous
electronic products, such as hearing aids, telephones, etc. See television advertisements, transportation from the first
half of the twentieth century (airlines, rental cars, buses, trains and ships), aircraft, trains, ships and busses. Many
ads from the WWII era are also available. You could spend hours perusing all the material there.
Here are a few examples of magazine advertisements that would be of particular interest to RF Cafe visitors. Be sure
to go to Duke University's Ad*Access
site for more. These images would be good for inclusion in presentations and reports as interest getters.
