Supreme Publications was another
of the more prominent publishers of electronic equipment service manuals back in
the middle of the last century.
Howard W.
Sams Photofact was of course the most well-known, but there were others
including this one and
Rider Service
Manuals. Supreme Publications claims their content is provided by the
manufacturers; to wit, " factory instructions for troubleshooting, repairing,
and alignment." For a mere $2.00, a service shop could have the required
data to service every AM and FM radio and television receiver produced for model
year 1948, when this issue of Radio News magazine was published.
According to the
BLS Inflation Calculator, that's the equivalent of $24.56 in 2022 - a pretty
good deal. A version of the manual with extra diagrams could be had for an
additional 50¢.
