Further Christmas Wrapping: 100 Years of Radio Times

It's even more of a Christmas tradition than the frosty reception: the Christmas and (usually) New Year double issue of the Radio Times. The premier listings magazine has now run almost every single week for a full hundred years - including Christmas weeks. And from the very start, those have come enclosed in a special cover that, over the years, has run the gamut from classy to classless, from detailed pre-Raphaelite oil-on-canvas depictions of Santa to staged photos of gormless comedy characters. All that and more can be seen here, in an absolutely exhaustive look back at a full century of the Bradshaw of Broadcasting at Christmastime. http://bobthefish.org.uk
