To talk about mid century radios, we have to start before WWII in the Great Depression. At this point, most radios were large—they served as pieces of furniture and weren’t portable. Many collectors consider this the “Golden Era” of radios because of their handcrafted beauty. “The independence of design is very often missing from today’s mass-produced and mass-marketed items,” says Paul Sanders, who restores radios from the 1930s and ’40s.
