Radio News Magazine Dec. 1925
This humorous holiday cover features a construction
project by the publisher, Hugo Gernsback, dubbed
The Loud-Speaking Christmas Tree. Not surprisingly,
the loud-speaking tree consists of a remote speaker
in a wooden box. Pretty tame stuff by today's
standards, but if you consider how novel radio itself
was in those days, this setup might have created quite
a sensation at a holiday gathering.
This issue includes the following articles:
- Edison and Radio, by Hugo Gernsback
- New Television Apparatus
- Electrifying Your Phonograph
- The Loud-Speaking Christmas Tree (construction)
- Advancement in Radio, Illustrated

versions of which supplied some of the graphics for
this website.
