I love the use of the phrase: "without inconvenience to the wearer". It just makes me crack up. 77 years later, people are still being trolled by delicious parody.

Im pretty sure there was such a radio-hat in Berlin, but I'm also pretty sure it didn't look like that.

All the radio elements are obviously hand-drawn. It is a faked photo. All the radio elements are obviously hand-drawn.

I bet these guys found a good photo somewhere and made up a story to go with it. To me that looks like an American Halloween costume.

Even if that dial is real, it is in a real akward place to try to tune it. Did magazines deliberately run spoofs? It looks goofy to me also.

The dial has no markings, the loudspeaker is an awfully inefficient design and the antenna is to short to be usefull. The coil could have also been fitted inside the hat if it were a real working radio. Placing it outside makes no sense. On the other hand, the detector would have made sense to be outside, as well as the amplifier as this obviously would have needed one. (It's a speaker set after all) I’m preety sure that’s a spoof.
