This broadcast listener is pulling in a favorite program on her portable Farnsworth CT-59, a 5-tube 3-way (AC/DC/Battery) set. The photo appeared in the May 1941 issue of Radio Retailing, and the accompanying article reminded readers that customers were already preparing their summer vacations, and dealers would be well advised to make sure they had a portable to take with them.
Here’s a post that I think you would really appreciate .

Still enjoying your page. Thanks so much.

Thanks! I don’t know if he was included in the book, but we previously reviewed a book, Letters of Compassion” which included many such letters. https://onetuberadio.com/2014/10/23/ww2-prisoner-of-war-broadcasts/
The author at one time had a Facebook group, but it looks like that’s no longer around.
