Electron Tube
Who remembers the wireless with its valves glowing, bringing the evening news or a favourite tune? The RCA electron tube is a piece of history from a time when fixing things was second nature. If the radio crackled or the TV dimmed, you didn’t throw it out—you simply swapped a valve, and it was back in action! And if you couldn’t do it yourself, there was always a local repairman who could fix it for you.
