one in the series of 26 Grigsby-Grunow "smart sets" introduced during
the summer and fall of 1933. Inspired by the "Century of Progress"
theme of the 1933 Chicago World's Fair, the "Lido" was one of four
"modernistic" Majestic consoles announced at the National Electrical &
Radio Exposition held during late September, in New York City's Madison Square Garden. Grigsby-Grunow, the manufacturer of Majestic radios, referred to their

“best-looking, best performing radios that America has ever seen”. For

“modern” styled radios that entered the marketplace in the wake of the
Chicago World's Fair.
