Radio Shack Catalog Archive (1939-2011)




Look, I’m not even going to explain this. Either 1) you’re the type of person who reads the words “Radio Shack Catalog Archive (1939-2011)”, completely flips their shit, clicks away immediately, and therefore isn’t even reading this, or 2) you don’t care. Have a good one!

Yes! My grandfather built several amplifiers/tuners from Radio Shack kits in the early 1960s. I even had one of the ones he built in my first post-college apartment in 2001 where sadly the power supply blew up and fried most of the transistors. Let me see if I can find the exact model...
Oh, man, yes. I remember my mom buying me and my brother Radio Shack Crystal Radio Kits when we were kids. We put those suckers together and then carefully and painstakingly trying to pick up local radio broadcasts. It was like the CrunchLabs or KiwiCo of the 80s.
The Armatron!
The holy trinity of Gen X childhood mail excitement: New Yorker cartoons, Edmund Scientific and the Radio Shack catalog.
