  • Notes
  • One of Crosley's first radio products was the Crosley Magfon. But in the ad from February 1922 in "Radio News" and in the first "Crosley Radio Products Catalog", on page three: "Crosley Harko Receiver", a crystal receiver for $ 9 "Single head phone", complete with head band and cord, and 125 feet antenna wire, complete with insulators, etc., $ 6." Click here for a summary of early Crosley and history. The "Single Head Phone" has 1000 Ohms and it can well be that it is also used in the Magfon.
    Some time later Crosley sold "Crosley Head Phones". At least in 1924 it was on the market for $ 3.75, according to an ad in "Scientific American", November 1924, page 298.
