Philco News's editorial team must have been as excited for springtime as we are when they made this February 1960 cover. Hello April flowers! It's good to see you again! Philco News was the monthly employee newsletter of the Philco Corporation, a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania firm that was once a pioneer in battery, radio, and television production.
