DeForest-Corsley Elgin, rear view, 1931

Look into the open back of a DeForest-Crosley radio displaying the tubes, transformer and loudspeaker.

DeForest-Corsley: Model 01331 “Elgin” (1931), Owen Sound, Ontario, 40 x 39 x 27cm. Musée des ondes Emile Berliner.

Interior of the DeForest-Corsley radio seen from the back. The vacuum tubes and other components are easily accessible for replacement. We also see the integrated speaker in the middle. The form and exterior design of radio had little to do with the technology itself.
