Package-Shaped Transistor Radios
Marlboro & Uniflow radios from Michael Jack’s Transistor Radios Flickr Photostream; PET Evaporated Milk & Folgers Coffee radios from Gasoline Alley Antiques; the others from eBay
I was on the radio last night. I got to sing two packaging songs on Rich Russo’s Anything, Anything on NY station, WRXP. (“Expiration Date” & “This Landfill is Your Landfill”)
We’ve featured a couple package-shaped transistor radios in the past—(here & here)—but now seemed like a good time for a bigger roundup of these advertising radios.
(Another packaging/radio after-thought, after the jump…)
