I’m a researcher at the University of Toronto preparing a very small temporary exhibit on the history of radio in collaboration with the IEEE and a U of T professor specialising in engineering and physics history. Items for the exhibit will come from the University of Toronto Scientific Instrument Collection. To round out the exhibit we are looking to loan any earlyish (c. 1950s, early 1960s) FM radio of a small or moderate size to display on a temporary basis (<6 months). The item will be displayed in a U of T building in a closed case and the exhibit labels will acknowledge contributors.
If you are in Toronto, and you own a radio that you think fits the bill, and that you’d be interested in loaning for display, please contact me at . Feel free to ask questions here or via email. Thanks!
