Thursday, February 13, 1936 - "A man was trying to sell daddy a radio"


"We went to School today.  We drew names for Valentines today at school.  I got a boy's name.  His name is Clifford Bromley.  I slept on the davenport tonight.  Mr. Taylor is still here.  A man was trying to sell daddy a radio."


I did a Google Image search for 1936 radios and found lots here.  Because Shirley has mentioned a radio station in her diary, I assume the family already has one.  

Clifford Arthur Bromley was born 9 September 1922 in Michigan.  In 1930, he was living with his mother and stepfather, Julia and Peter Paul in Grand Rapids, and in 1940, they were living in Muskegon.  Clifford grew up to serve in the U.S. Army Air Force during World War II and died 10 March 1962.
