PORTABLE RADIOLA DISPLAY
Lyon & Healy, Chicago, Has Artistic Vacation Scene
Showing Joys of the Portable Set.
A striking example of radio window display is
that of Lyon & Healy Chicago, in which is shown
the portable Radiola Superheterodyne. The display
is arranged in the large corner window by which
thousands pass daily. The possibilities of successful
displays in the corner window of the big Chicago
store are further increased in the fact that motor
busses transporting thousands to and from the down-
town business centers, load and unload passengers at
this point.
A more appropriate and effective display could
not be had at the present time than the one arranged
of the portable Radiola. It is artistic and appealing
in every sense of the word and depicts the joys of
the portable out-of-doors. The background is a
mountain scene, showing pine forests, lofty peaks and
falling water in perfectly blended colors. In the
foreground sits a young lady with her portable
Radiola, tuning in some distant station, while near-
by sits a man enjoying the program.
The arrangement of soft, blue lights add to the
attractiveness of the display during the night and a
bright light placed under the waterfall makes that
feature clearly visible. The credit for the fine show
goes to W. G. Stewart, who has shown artistic ability
in window arrangements.
