Hi-Fi Radio
Silvertone Zenith

Connemara was filled with Zenith radios, given to the Sandburgs by the President of Zenith. Mr. and Mrs. Sandburg were faithful listeners to news programs. Of particular interest was a show hosted by Edward R. Murrow and produced by both Murrow and his CBS co-worker Fred W. Friendly called Hear It Now. This show ran for one hour on Friday nights at 9:00 p.m. and chronicled history in the making. Keeping up with current and world affairs was important to the Sandburgs.
