"Happy
Days are Here Again" went the most popular tune of 1930, but for
most Depression-era Americans, the sentiment amounted to wishful
thinking. In 1932, Hoover was defeated by FDR by a landslide. After this
runaway victory, it became apparent that FDR embodied an optimism and
speaking voice that seemed tailor-made for radio. He delivered regular
radio addresses to the nation known as "Fireside Chats." But
FDR's chats weren' the only thing Americans were listening to. Americans
were relying upon radio as their evening entertainment. The tunes and
talk were enjoyed on radio sets just like Crosley's Companion. Careful
attention to detail makes this mini, yet magnificent, Cathedral-style
radio as authentic as the 1930's original.
