John Schneider's ColorRadio
Bay Area Broadcast Historian John Schneider has turned night into day for radio history. A CHRS History Fellow, John has hand-colored many of the iconic black and white photos of radio stations as they appeared in the 1920s and 1930s.
Most of these are poster size, used to illustrate the radio exhibit at the San Francisco Airport Museum several years ago. The Airport has kindly donated John’s work to be on permanent display at the CHRS Museum in Alameda. In this video, John shows how he colorizes a black and white photo.

"A Brief History of Radio Devices" is about the important years between 1900 and 1927 when we progressed from crystal set and headphones for wireless code to radios in wood cabinets with loudspeakers for broadcasting programs to the public. The late NBC engineer Robert Jensen does an excellent show and tell. I taped this in Hollywood in 1984 at Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters.

Born in 1959, it astonishes me to think how far humanity has come in communications!
Any time someone is talking about radio invention, and especially wireless telephony (ie not telegraphing morse code but transmitting voice), should mention a true inventor Reginald Aubrey Fessenden. It is not Marconi, it is Fessenden we should praise!
My family moved from WV to Columbus, and I can vouch for him being an authentic hillbilly. Thanks!
I see a white radio in the background that may be the same one that was seen in the Radio Collector TV series part 4.
well darnit. i was looking for verne gagne.
My brother is also radio collector. I Gave him name marconi

There was also a Crosley 30" set that used the same chassis as this.
Ah the good old 201A
MZTV museum has one of these.
In 1932, Rudy Vallee flew into port columbus, and arrived in a sporty roadster coming down the hill there, and sang with a megaphone to the students of OSU for their spring dance. I was told it cost $5.00 a couple to get in which was a lot of money then. He supposedly just stayed a short while then left. Everybody was PO'd! This was an outdoor dance behind the ballroom between the building and the river behind there.
"Age-restricted video (based on Community Guidelines)" 🤦♂ Really, What the hell is up with RUclips?!? Was Edison's version age restricted in 1896?🤔 🤷♂️
Weird fact in radio history: Philco was a BATTERY company that made a stack of money making...Battery Eliminators! (Of course, they went on to make radios!) LOL.
Most people, many without even realizing it use radio NOW more than ever! Most people just think of "radio" as AM/FM/SW Broadcast radio and perhaps "CB" and "HAM" as being "radio". But OTA broadcast and Satellite TV are also radio. Then you have Cellular, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. These are ALSO radio. You even have a fairly high-powered radio transmitter in your house (Using a VACUUM TUBE!) It's in your kitchen and helps you make "Hot-Pockets". I had a "kid" (30 Y.O.) tell me he NEVER listens to the radio. He has Spotify on his Cellphone and uses Bluetooth. What he did now know is he IS listening to the radio...TWICE! Radio technology has NEVER been used more than today. Now excuse me while I go I start my car. I keep a radio transmitter in my pocket!

Actually the horn speaker predates the cone type speaker by a few years.
In the examples, he was referencing the ELECTRO MECHANICAL differences, NOT the form factor. The Magnavox speaker WAS a horn, but it was the newer DYNAMIC driven type, whereas the first cone speaker he showed was not. The second cone speaker (Crosley) was a Dynamic. The difference is a dynamic speaker uses a moving COIL the older system used an "armature" to vibrate the driver. His time line was CORRECT as to the electromechanical evolution. Either type of diving mechanism can be a cone OR a horn speaker. (as was shown). Hell, I had some cheap Japanese portable radio from the 1950s! that used the outdated non-dynamic (but very much a cone) speaker. The Dynamic type is what is most used to this day.
Love to watch this... But mostly i convert to MP3 and hear like a radio playing.... Got lots of old movies... Thanks so much.... Hope your doing well...
YAY SAN JOSE!
Superb
Marconi invented nothing he stole from so many others.
nice to hear someone who knows what they are talking about
An excellent presented piece of history! Thanks for sharing and the very best of luck!
That's amazing. Costs $20,242 in 2022 money!
Dan was a memorable leader, sorry to hear of his passing. Steve Joos was also a good radio man and even greater man.

I have one of these and would like to speak to John if possible.
$1800 in 1952 is now $19, 854.07! That's not for the rich.. that's for the SUPER rich!! WOW!
Ok I don’t know how I ever missed this. I never knew a 30 inch existed back then. This is amazing to see and I can only imagine the people who saw this set when it was new and what they thought about it. Technology is really something in the fact that most of the parts in the tv were phased out and replaced with less and less over time. This was a great job for sure. Sometimes I miss having that piece of furniture to look at. Keep up the good work.
And I have a bunch of those little barrel looking things with wires coming out of them too.
