Subject

A chronology of the evolution of WBT-FM

Description

This is a page from a promotional magazine for WBT-FM and WBTV that was released during the station's 30th anniversary celebration (1952). "Chronology of WBT" and "Spencer Mountain Tower" highlight the expansion of the station since 1945, the year that World War II ended. The station was a source of family and community information and livelihood, and the entirety of this magazine is an example of popular postwar American optimism in the good of the industry.
