ALLEN B. DUMONT LABORATORIES, INC.
PASSAIC, NEW JERSEY
By Donald 0. Patterson
Allen B. DuMont was born in Brooklyn, New York on January 29, 1901. As a
boy, he smashed the head of his drum to
find out where the music came from. He
owned and operated amateur trans~itting
station W2AYR.
Later came his graduation from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute of Troy, New
York with an Electrical Engineering
degree followed by several years with the
Westinghouse Lamp Company, first as
engineer in the development laboratory,
later as engineer in charge of various
types of radio receiving tubes.
While with Westinghouse, he applied
for numerous patents covering tube improvements and tube production equipment One of these patents made tube
history as a high speed automatic aging
and testing machine operating at a rate of
5000 tubes per hour. For this and other
contributions, he was presented with the
most outstanding accomplishment of any
employee in the Westinghouse organization in 1927.
From Westinghouse, DuMont went to
the reorganized DeForest Company in
1928 to become Chief Engineer and later
as Vice President in charge of all engineering development work and manufacturing. There he found and abandoned
plant which had not been operated for
over a year. The available equipment was
absolute. The DV series of audions had
already been superseded by improved
tubes during the company's long inactivity. There was no personnel on hand.
Nevertheless, within a few months,
DuMont had gathered new machinery,
trained new personnel and was turning
out in excess of 30,000 receiving tubes
each day. He developed special equipment to speed up prcxluction and reduce
costs, including the improved high speed
sealing machine, automatic grid winding
and welding machine, high ~ basebranding machine, high speed basing and
wire cutting machine, improved weld
machine, high speed automatic seasoning
and testing n'1achine, and various tube
characteristic test sets and life racks.
DuMont then turned his attention to
transmitting tubes. Soon a complete line
of tubes was made available.
"Actually, my first close contact
with ...Television was in the year 1928
when I was working with DeForest. C.
Frances Jenkins in Washington and Baird
in England were at that time experimenting with a crude television system that
used mechanical scanning discs and
which produced a very small indistinct
picture composed of 48 lines.
The DeForest Company purchased
rights from Jenkin's and set up television
transmitter W2XCD at Passaic, NJ. We
manufactured a small number of television receivers and sold them to amateurs
and others who were experimenting with
the television system. A great deal of
effort was expended in attemtping to
develop this system to produce satisfactory pictures but we weren't successful."
Indeed realizing the need for cathode
ray technique of television, DuMont
resigned his post at DeForest in 1931 and
went in virtual seclusion.
It was in the minds of a number of
people that the answer for better television was the cathode ray tube. The
greatest obstacle was that tubes available
at that time were not only very costly, but
extremenly unreliable and the largest
only five inches in diameter. The best
tubes obtained would last only 100 hours.
"We had to produce tubes with large
screen sizes that could be made at a
reasonable cost and that would last for
thousands of hours."
The year was 1931. The scene: the
basement of DuMont's home in Upper
Montclair, New Jersey. "I invested $500
and a very good friend put in another

By Frederick Rice
During the 1930's, if someone wanted
a "State Of The Art" radio and could
afford it, he could buy a Scott or
McMurdo-Silver radio. If he wanted it
with a phonograph, it could be supplied
with an outside unit such as a Garrard. He
would have a fine "Radio" with phonograph. Also available if you were wealthy
was THE CAPEHART which was a
deluxe "Phonograph" without radio or
with if desired. The Capehart's main
selling point was it's turnover record
changer. It could play 20 records on one
or both sides and intermix 10 and 12 inch
records. The Capehart was introduced in
1931 and remained in production until
1949. The last models had 2 speeds and
played the new microgroove LPs. In the
1930's the Capehart was suited for the
album sets that were available. A Gilbert
and Sullivan operetta might have eleven
12 inch records. Whether the set was
pressed in manual sequence (1 - 2, 3 - 4,
5 - 6, etc.) or slide automatic sequence (1
- 5, 2 - 6, 3 - 7, etc.), the Capehart could
play it without interuption. The slide
automatic sequence was actually made
for machines like the RCA D-22 whcih
reversed the order of it's records.
Capehart could play these types in the
one side mode without interuption.
Capehart furnished a good radio and prior
to 1941 sub-contracted them from an
outside source just like Scott with their
phonograph mechanisms. The radios
followed technological development like
other sets of the day. The model 500F is
one of the more sophisticated designs.
Introduced in late 1937 for the 1938
model year, this set featured separate bass
and treble controls, automatic frequency
control which worked nicely with the
optional motorized remote control, and
variable bandpass I.F. for "High fidelity"
.r:eception. The main feature of the 500
series sets was the tri-amplified audio
system. The 500F has separate bass, midrange, and treble amplifiers, each driving
it's own speaker; an 18 inch woofer, 14
inch midrange, and a 12 inch tweeter.
View with cabinet closed.
Each amplifier uses push-pull 6L6Gs
driven by a triode-connected 6F6G. The
500F without remote control was priced
at $2500. The 400 series which was biamplified, started at $1145. There was a
300 series which had a single amplifier in
the $800 range. There had been a 200
series which was dropped by 1939 and
replaced by a 100 series in the $500
range. The cheapest Capeharts still cost
more than a top of the line Philco or
RCAs.
Capehart had several exclusive dealers
around the country such as John W anamaker' sin Philadelphia (where this 500F
was bought), Steinway, Aeolian, and
Liberty Music Shops in New York, Lyon
& Healy and Bissell-Weisart in Chicago,
and Sherman Clay in Portland, Seattle,
and San Francisco. Liberty Music Shops
was probably the biggest and could do an
installation of a 500 instrument for up to
$10,000. Such an installation would
feature remote control boxes thru-out a
home which would allow selection of 6
preset stations, changeover between radio
and phonograph, reject, and turn the
system on and off from anywhere in the
home. A massive relay system was
installed in the main machine to allow
three speaker systems to be turned on and
off in any room. How is the performance
of a tri-amplified Capehart? Actually, it is
very loud and bassy. The bass amp is
rated at 25 watts, and the other two at 15
watts for a total of 55 watts. The Capehart sales brochure states that the fre~
quency response goes from 16 cycles to
13,824 cycles. I don't know how they
came up with these numbers. The 18 inch
woofer probably doesn't go that far down
and the 12 inch tweeter doesn't go above
7500 cycles. Records in the late 1930's
weren't recorded above 7500 cycles and
the majority of broadcasts did no go
above 5000 cycles. The Capehart owner
4
of the 30's didn't mind the lack of highfidelity though. As Fortune Magazine
stated in Feb. 41, "What the Capehart
owner was buying was prestige, the
luxury of staying in his chair while the
records changed, and the basic satisfaction of owning something few others in
the world may share."
The restoration of this 500F was
trying at times. The elctronics were rebuilt before I bought the set. All the
filters and paper caps had to be replaced.
All three driver transformers between the
driver rubes and outputs had to be replaced. The drive motor was the biggest
headache. The previous owner had it
rewound and when I installed it, it ran
backwards. I sent it to my rebuilder and
he rewound it to run in the correct direction. The first rebuilder did not use the
correct amount of blms. My rebuilder
copied the blms and the motor would run
The marvel that made it famous.
hot and stall. I found a fellow who knew
these motors and he rewound it a third
time. Now that the motor ran, I found the
main gear was so bad that it had to be
replaced. 10 months later, the set was
together and working. It has never broken
a record.

$500 and this was the initial working
capital for DuMont Laboratories." Here
DuMont set up some second hand tube
making machinery. "We had three good
men and a fourth worked for us part time.
One was a glass blower, one a chemist,
and two were technicians."
"The development of that first reliable
cathode ray tube was pretty much a
question of trial and error. Hundreds of
experimental envelopes were blown,
flourescent coatings applied to the faces
and electron guns inserted, one after
another. Many ended up in the trash
barrel." According to Dr. Thomas T.
Goldsmith, Chief of Research, many of
these experimental versions were made in
a light bulb envelope to save the cost of
producing a full size tube.
"Nevertheless," DuMont said, "We did
develope a practical cathode ray tube that
would last several thousand hours
utilizing an electron lens for focusing
instead of an inert gas."
"In our first year of operation, sale of
all products of the company amounted to
$70. In the next year we raised that up to
$1850, and in our fourth year of operation, sold the large amount of $18,000. In
those first four years I personnaly had to
supplement the initial amount of money
invested by putting up an additional
$25,000. This money was obtained by
loans on my insurance policies, advances
from members of my family and loans
from friends who had faith in what we
were attempting to do.
The basement and garage space soon
outgrown, DuMont moved his small
organization to a store at 532 Valley
Road in Upper Montclair. A few more
months and a hole was knocked through
the wall, taking over the adjacent store.
Then another hole and a third store,
another hole and another hole until five
stores were joined together.

CROSLEY:
Old Cincinnati Name Finds Favor
By John Kiesewetter
With New Generation"When we started with the Crosley, it
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Many Tristate residents know all
about the Crosley Shelvador refirgerator,
the Crosley range and Crosley radio.
But most people in Cincinnati - home
of Powel Crosley, Jr. and his Crosley
Corp. earlier this century - probably don't
know that Crosley appliances aren't antiques nor just a relic from 1940s nostalgia. You can purchase a new, 1989 model
Crosley Shelvador.
Or a new Crosley self-cleaning electric range, frost-free refirgerator or garbage disposal.
Even an '89 Crosley microwave oven.
The Crosley Corp., once the proud
Cincinnati namesake for WLW radio,
appliances and autos, is alive and well - in
North Carolina - to the surprise of almost
everyone in the Tristate, including the
researchers who recently documented
Powel Crosley' s life for WCET-TV.
Today's new Crosley Corp. is a small,
private-label line of modem appliances
sold exclusively by a group of independent distributors. (Only 5,000 Crosley
products were sold in Ohio last year.) The
company also licenses the current Crosley
radio replicas sold by Thomas America
Corp.
"We've got refrigerators, freezers,
ranges, dishwashers, washers and driers,
air conditioners, microwaves and disposals," says C. E. "Buddy" Dixson, president of the Crosley Corp., based in Winston-Salem, N.C.
Dixson and five other independent
distributors revived the Crosley label in
1976, after Philco-Ford ceased production
of household appliances.
Their Brown-Rogers-Dixson Co. acquired the Crosley name from Avco,
which had bought the Crosley manufacturing and broadcasting properties in 1946.
The new Crosley appliances are manufactured by Magic Chef, Admiral and Ernerson.
"We don't say our refrigerator is the
same as an Admiral, which it' s not. And
we don't say thet're made by Admiral,
which they are," says Dixson, a Crosley
distributor in the 1950s.
Today's Crosley gives independent
distributors their own line to sell to
smaller "mom and pop" appliance stores,
such as Herb & Kramer in Mount Healthy
and R. L. Johnson in Aurora, Ind. They're
available in 36 states, Ber-muda and
Puerto Rico.

Crosley's marketing strategy has been
directed at dealers through trade publications. The company decided not to buy
advertising seen by the general public
because people can't easily find the products.
That's precisely the case in Cincinnati.
"The weakest part we've got should be
our strongest - and that's Cincinnati," says
Dixson, who plans to hold his national
Crosley distributors convention here this
summer.
M.A.S. Inc., the Cleveland-area finn
that controls Crosley's Ohio distribution,
plans to open a Crosley warehouse here
this spring.

was kind of a laughter," says Greg
Wulfekotter, M.A.S. regional sales manager for Greater Cincinnati. "But for some
reason, it's begining to take off here."
Crosley's new success has come from
customers who had owned a Crosley
years ago - "the mature consumer," in
Wulfekotter's words.
"The people who were born before
World War II knew Crosley well," Dixon
says. "The people born after World War
II don't know what Crosley was. So
we've had to do a lot ofre-educating. It's
been a real challenge for us."
Crosley's 10-year limited warranty on
all appliances - "the best in the business"
- also appeals to buyers, Dixon says.
To small, independent appliance
dealers, having a unique brand of
merchandise, such as crosley, is appealing. They have something that can't be
offered by Swallen's, Steinberg's and
Sears.
"We've made a commitment to the
smaller dealers not to move the Crosley
brand to the big dealers," Wulfekotter
says.
Dixson says that he did "$100 million
in retail sales in Crosley-branded
merchandise" last year.
M.A.S. sold 5,000 Crosley units
throughout Ohio in 1988 - more than
tripling its business from a year ago. It's
the fastest-growing line carried by
M.A.S., surpassing the company's annual
growth of Sharp electronic products and
Speed Queen laundry machines last year,
says Harry Steller, M.A.S. president.
"In "89, I expect (my) Crosley sales to
double. You're talking about giant
growth" in Ohio, Steller says.
Dixson says his Crosley Corp. still
receives letters from satisfied original
customers from the 1940s.
"We still get a letter, one or two a
month, saying 'My Crosley.is still
working. And we've never had a service
call.' The Crosley name is a good name,"
Dixson says.
