A Radio Postcard Journey - 17


Look what arrived in my mailbox! Throwback to 1963! ЁЯУ╗ This striking black and white photo captures a Radio Rigonda, a classic tube radiogram (radio + gramophone) produced at the Popov Radio Factory in Riga. This photo, taken by Victor KalenikP for the "Minsk School of Photography" album, showcases the elegance of mid-century design. I love the details – the knobs, the tuning dial, and that little surfer figurine on top! A special thank you to my Russian postcrosser for sharing this gem.
