The new production line at the Philco Radio & Television Corporation factory in Perivale
The new production line at the Philco Radio & Television Corporation factory in Perivale, London, where women on the production line are putting the finishing touches to a batch of the new Philco Peoples Radio. The company designed the wireless set for the mass market by keeping manufacturing cost down by using moulded Bakelite for the cabinet. Bakelite was a plastic formed when phenol formaldehyde was combined with a wood flour filler. Its trade name Bakelite was derived from the name of its inventor, Leo Baekeland. 31st August 1936
