Since the 1920s, the radio set has been an important part of most people's lives. In the thirties and forties, the wireless was a potent symbol of status. After the war, the emphasis began to change towards portability, and the change from valves to transistors in the 1960s changed the radio into a more useful, but far less interesting object.
