Step back to the golden age of radio with this captivating 1943 linen postcard, showcasing the iconic NBC and CBS Radio City studios in Hollywood, California. The vibrant image features the distinctive architecture of these broadcasting powerhouses, including the prominent NBC building and the Radio Center Restaurant, capturing the bustling energy of the entertainment capital during wartime. This piece offers a glimpse into the architectural style and urban landscape of Los Angeles in the early 1940s, a period when radio was at its peak.
Adding to its historical charm, the reverse side bears a clear Los Angeles postmark from December 6, 1943, and a heartfelt message mentioning an attempt to secure tickets for the legendary Jack Benny Show.
