| The Original Autorama Black |

|
Bet you didn’t know that Powel Crosley was the first to build a production model
sports car in the US. Yes, he’s not only the genius who brought us mass produced
radios, appliances, and of course WLW – The Nation’s Station, but he also became
famous for his Crosley automobiles. The Autorama CD represents a vintage icon
mimicking the clean, streamlined stylings of a classic 1950’s automobile. From
the sleek lines to the chrome grill side mounted speakers, this beauty takes you
back to the days of drive-ins and diners, but adds a hint of technological
advance with a CD player. Crosley’s fascination with automobiles is evident
right down to the last exacting detail. The Autorama CD features an AM/FM Radio,
a 3 speed turntable, a compact disc player with full function remote control and enough sophistication to render
most enthusiasts speechless. |

Company History
In 1920 Powel Crosley founded the company that pioneered radio broadcasting and mass market manufacturing around the world. Dismayed with the $130 price tag for the radio receiver he promised to buy for his son’s birthday, Crosley decided to make his own. Upon successfully building a working set for only $35, Crosley was quick to spot the mass market potential.
It was a simple idea - design a fully functioning radio, meticulously craft each unit with obsessive detail and precise accuracy, and of course add a measure of consideration for the wallet.
This simple idea led Crosley Radio to become the world’s largest radio manufacturer while Powel Crosley became known as ‘The Henry Ford of Radio.’ His relentless fascination with mechanical devices, coupled with his intense desire for success, sent Crosley’s career soaring |
