Synopsis
ONLY CONNECT is a comprehensive history of American broadcasting from its earliest days in radio, through the rise of television, to the current era of digital media and the Internet. It presents broadcasting as a vital component of American cultural identity, placing the development of U.S. radio, television, and new media in the context of social and cultural change. Each chapter opens with a discussion of the historical period, thoroughly traces the development of media policy, the growth of media industries, and the history of U.S. broadcast programming, and closes with a look at the major ways that radio and television have been understood and discussed throughout American history.

    Purchased on Saturday afternoon delivered on Tuesday, not much more to say. A tremendous vendor, buy without reservation. Box and packaging was so professionally done, including eBay logo tape used to close the box. I didn’t know that such a tape existed. The appearance was if it actually came from eBay, the company as opposed to a mom and pop seller. The kit was perfect and as described thanks again for the extremely fast processing and delivery. Regards, Randy.

    This was one of four items in a shipment . Outer box was unmolested , kit in new condition as advertised although there was an edge crease to the box but kit was priced at a discount . I didn’t do a complete parts count but there are a great many parts for this small scale. The shipping time was surprisingly fast for the long journey over land and sea , a great plus for me the buyer. I will have to consider this seller also for the large selection of upgrade sets .

    Excellent models, high quality and exactly as described. Arrived in perfect condition with excellent packaging. Great price on hard to find models. Boxes are in great shape, look like they just came off hobby shop shelf, models look really good. Seller also gave discount for multiple items ordered and adjusted shipping to match, great job!
