Like
Robert Hawes' previous book RADIO ART, this is a
presentation of the development of domestic radio design,
but dealing solely with Bakelite cabinets. |
| |
The
book has chapters on Radio History, cabinet design and a
very useful chapter on the care and preservation of
Bakelite, covering repairs and buying tips along with
sources. |
| |
The
main part of the book however, are the 130 really
stunning photographs of receivers from the UK, USA,
Australia, France, Italy, Czechoslovakia and Spain. |
| |
An
absolute must for any collectors of Bakelite Radios or
Bakelite objects in general. |
