Australasian Electrical Times (&) Australasian Electrical and Radio Times.

Melbourne: W. Davey, 1923-45. An early but broken run of this periodical, bringing the technical application of electricity to Australian society. It includes electrical & radio fixtures, appliances, hardware, cabling, and wonderful period advertisements, and personal announcements of people in the industry. Most amusing is the occasional list of the early adopters who had electricity installed in their homes. Published monthly (or so), a total of 154 issues.
