The Radio Historian has featured historic broadcast transmitters and historic studios in his last two calendars.
In 2017, he looks at an even bigger picture with a calendar of historic radio buildings.
The calendar features 13 high-resolution color images of broadcasting structures dating between 1925 and 1948.
Each image began as an original black-and-white glossy photograph, and has been digitally remastered and colorized to replicate the original scene as accurately as possible. Two pages of text at the end of the calendar describe the history of each scene. Additionally, each month’s calendar page commemorates important dates in radio history.
