RADIO ON THE WEB: WWW.RADIOSHACKCATALOGS.COM

Want to spend some time strolling vicariously through the history of the electronics retailing? Now you can thanks to a website called RadioShackCatalogs.com.

The site contains catalogs for the company that date all the way back to 1939. Each one is animated in a way that a click of your mouse lets you turn the pages or zoom in to see that special part ofd item that evokes a memory of days gone by. The site also has the complete history of the company along with the story of how in 1963, Charles Tandy purchased Radio Shack Corporation when it was on the verge of bankruptcy for only $300,000 and built it into the mega corporation it is today.

Whether or not you are a fan of Radio Shack you will likely get a thrill of this trip back in time. You will find it at www.RadioShackCatalogs.com on the World Wide Web. (K3MSB)
