    See more than 80 great little radios-- over 110 original images in all! In
    Toy Crystal Radios Volume Two
    you'll see large, bright photos showing these amazing radios dating from the 1930s right up through the present.
    You'll see radios designed to look like transistor radios, space capsules, tiny table models, rockets, and lots more.
    All radios are pictured in sparkling full color. And there are many colorful boxes, original ads, and illustrations, too. Lively text includes model numbers, dates, and notes.
    Fun and informative for anyone interested in lively 20th Century design, as well as for all collectors of crystal sets,  tube and transistor radios, and vintage toys and space age toys.
    This little volume is not like typical collector books that are short on pictures and long on dry descriptions. Here you SEE the radios. Every item is pictured, and in bright, full color! The sample pages you see here are just a small example of what you'll find inside.
    You'll see the earliest Tinytones, the Vest-O-Fone, the stunning Melotone, the Mammy Miniradio, the unbelievable "Marvelous Marconi," the very funny "Leica Dog," the unique Hearever X-40, a couple of Heathkit Jr. kits, the amazing Friendship 7 Space Capsule (with John Glenn on the box!), and the early '50s Dick Tracy Wrist Radio.
    And then there's the the Talking Book, Radio-Tune, the Mystery Radio, Q-Plus, Pee-Wee, Kokeshi Doll, the Morris Wristwatch, the Pincushion (complete with thimble and tape measure!), Get Smart Secret Agent 86 Pen Radio, Monarch Gun Radio, Six Million Dollar Man backpack radio, and lots and lots more!
    This is not a mass-market book. Created by its author to share with other collectors, it is a professionally prepared specialty booklet. We are sure you'll agree it's a remarkable piece of work. Packed with great pictures and info, it is 24 pages and measures 5.5 x 8.5 inches. Many thousands of collectors have purchased this author's unique booklets--and most consider them to be collectibles in their own right.
