There’s a reason why this young woman seems particularly cheerful about pulling in a station on her broadcast radio. It’s because she put the radio together herself from a kit.

The kit is described in the December 1947 issue of Popular Mechanics, and from the description, it sounds like an “All American Five” of the type manufactured by the millions. Curiously, though, the magazine doesn’t mention the source.  If any of our readers can identify the brand of this kid, please let us know.
