Dog Listening to the Radio



Today's picture is from 1922, and it shows a woman listening to the radio with her dog. The woman apparently was a famous Russian who was driven out of Russia by the Bolshevist. Her name was Bernhardt, but am not sure what she was famous for.

I have enjoyed the comments of people remembering listening to old time radio with family and friends. Back in the day, there was one radio in the home, and people sat together around it. Today, everyone has an ipod like device, and isolates them from the rest of the world, and communication is through texting. Somewhere, something important has been lost in all this.
