Step back into a pivotal year of transformation and tension with Remembering 1948, an extensive audio collection of 65 recordings spanning over 28 hours. This compilation captures the second full year of post-war peace, a time when the world balanced austerity with hope, witnessed the birth of nations, and heard the echoes of conflict through the radio. From the assassination of Mohandas Gandhi in January to the dramatic Berlin Airlift that began in June, and from the London "Austerity Games" to the founding of the State of Israel on May 14, 1948 was a year that reshaped the global order. This collection brings together news broadcasts, entertainment programs, and historical moments as they aired, offering collectors a vivid audio time capsule of a world navigating the dawn of the Cold War.
