Radiomarelli
In 80’s I began my radio collection and Radiomarelli was the first
argument that I was interested in. Radiomarelli was founded in 1929 from the Magneti Marelli company. Between 1920 and 1930 there was a linkage from this Italian company and
the American Bosch
about the manufacturing of magnets and electrical parts for motor vehicles. On 11.19.1930, the Magneti Marelli decided to start the radio production
and the new company was named Radiomarelli. The Radiomarelli project manager was Mr. B.A.Quintavalle and the first
radio models, made in Italy, were inspired to the American Bosch
models. At that time, Radiomarelli and American Bosch were business partners. The diagrams and the chassis of the first Radiomarelli models were
similar to the ones of American Bosch models, the wood cabinets were
a bit different. The “Musagete” model has the same chassis of the A. Bosch mod. 48 and
the wood cabinet was made in Italy but is very similar to the
American model. The “Coribante” model is the Italian version of the A. Bosch mod. 5. The “Scrigno” model was the Italian version of the Bosch 200A &
200B models. The chassis of the “Alauda” is very similar to the one of Bosch 402. From 1935 onwards Radiomarelli decided to create a more independent production.
