EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an Atwater Kent Model 30 Radio from the roaring twenties, a testament to the technological advancements and cultural shift towards mass communication during November 1926. The Atwater Kent Model 30 Radio, manufactured by the Atwater Kent Company, was a significant innovation in the realm of broadcasting equipment. Its sleek design and simple, yet elegant, horn-shaped loudspeaker were a marvel of engineering, transforming the way people listened to their favorite programs at home. The radio's intricate mechanism is on full display in this image, with its bobbins and cotton thread sampler providing a glimpse into the inner workings of this marvel. The thread sampler, a common feature in sewing and textile industries, is an unexpected yet fitting addition to the radio, symbolizing the connection between the old and the new, the traditional and the modern. The Atwater Kent Model 30 Radio brought the world into people's homes, bridging the gap between distant communities and fostering a sense of connection. This photograph serves as a reminder of a time when radio was the primary source of entertainment and information, and a testament to the transformative power of technology. The November 1920s, often referred to as the Jazz Age, was a time of cultural and societal change, and the Atwater Kent Model 30 Radio was a symbol of this transformation. This photograph captures the essence of that era, encapsulating the excitement and wonder that came with the advent of mass communication technology.
