The Radio Historian’s 2024 Calendar

Is Available Now

Hello Again!

This is to advise you that the Radio Historian’s 2024 calendar is now available for immediate delivery.

This is the tenth annual printing of the Radio Historian’s calendar. As in the past, this year’s calendar features fourteen high-resolution colorized photographs from radio broadcasting’s glorious 100+ year history. Each image originated 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.

This year’s calendar would look great on your office wall, and also makes an excellent Christmas gift for your radio friends.

Here are this year’s featured photographs:
