Radio Fun, 1945


This Radio Fun annual 1945 (published late 1944) has seen better days. On the other hand, it has lot of character! During the war years, radio kept up the spirits of those able to tune in. For those without their own sets, there was the pub or work place. The war had dragged on for 5 years and the radio had made stars out of many of those whose voices came via the air waves. You'll find many of them within this magnificent volume, and I've added some shots of content for your perusal.

Radio Fun Annual was published by Amalgamated Press for about 20 years and if memory serves, Tony Hancock appeared on the very last, 1960.

The weekly comic version of Radio Fun ran through from 1938 to 1961; a total of 1167 issues.
