Canadian Women Needed to Assemble Radio Tubes: 1945

1945Feb7TorontoWith Canada’s men off to war, it was up to the women to work in war industries, as shown by this ad from the Toronto Daily Star 75 years ago today, February 7, 1945.

The ad doesn’t identify the company, but it’s a well-established organization that manufactures radio tubes.  Women were needed full time to work as assemblers, and the work promised to continue after victory.

Application was to be made at an agency located at 832 Bay Street, Toronto.
