Ever wonder what was on the radio a century ago? Ever wonder what was on the radio a century ago?

 Many issues of GE Schenectady Works News are preserved in our archives at miSci, and in the 1920s they published the daily schedule for radio station WGY- which was run by GE at the time. 

This is the schedule for April 8, 1926; anybody have a guess what books were being discussed on 'WGY Book Chat' that day?

We went looking in the Museum archives for somethi We went looking in the Museum archives for something related to 'spring' and found... Saratoga Springs!

This photograph is more than 100 years old and shows Broadway from the intersection of Phila St. If you take a close look the next time you're in town, you'll be able to recognize the buildings on the right- most of them are still there! The photo was originally taken by GE to show off the electric street lights you can see on the sidewalk.
