Mickey Mouse Radios
Since the creation of radio, there have been millions of people all around
the world that have owned some sort of radio. Many people own multiple
radios, while others, collect radios. Many of these collectors also collect
Disney items. One of the greatest inventions to these individuals is the
Mickey Mouse radio.
Disney and Mickey Mouse have truly evolved over the years. With that
evolution, there were changes to the radio as well. Over the years, radios
have varied, from transistor radios, to AM and FM radios. As a result,
there are also Mickey Mouse radios to accommodate these radios. There is
the Mickey Mouse radio that is a transistor radio. This radio comes as the
head of Mickey Mouse, complete with it's own carrying case and strap. Other
radios, such as the AM and FM Mickey Mouse radios vary greatly as well.
There are AM and FM Mickey Mouse radios that date as far back as 1934.
Such a radio, should it be sold in mint condition, can easily bring in over
$100.00. These radios, dating from the 1930's, are much larger. They are
shown as a square shape, similar to that of a television. Each corner has a
little triangle that has a different Walt Disney Character. In the middle
of the radio is some tweed-looking material to cover the speaker. Int he
center of the speaker, there is Mickey Mouse in his bright red pants and
yellow shoes. The cello bass that he plays adds another fun little detail
to the radio.
Mickey Mouse and his friends add such fun and flair to these radios. Anyone
can listen to music in vintage style. So no matter what the radio is,
whether it be a transistor, an AM or an FM radio, Disney enthusiasts can
listen to their favorite news and tunes with an adorable Mickey Mouse radio.
