Sony Transistor Radio - 1958
One of our special adventures on our January 2008 trip to Japan was a tour of the Sony Archives in Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan. The museum traces the history of Sony's breakthrough inventions since its founding by Masaru Ibuka in 1946. This revolutionary "pocketable" portable AM radio was the initial international export by Sony, and quickly captured the world's imagination. (Harry B. received one of these from his parents, as a Honolulu schoolboy circa 1960, and immediately embraced the portability of the inovative radio.)
