Radio and Television Production in the 1930s and 1940s
The Sparks-Withington Company was officially incorporated in
Ohio
in 1916 and then reincorporated in 1919 when shares in the company began to be sold on the New York Stock Exchange. After a brief period of military production during World War I, Sparks-Withington used its growing expertise in the electronics field to bring out a line of battery powered radios, followed in 1926 by production of the country's first all-electric radio, promoted as "Radio's Richest Voice." While many American companies suffered during the Great Depression, Sparks-Withington expanded. In 1930, the company formed a wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, Sparton of Canada, Ltd., to introduce the Sparton radio line in
Canada
. In the same year, the company acquired the Cardon-Phonocraft Company of
Jackson
,
Michigan
, and integrated their radio tubes and combination radio-phonograph products into the Sparton line. Sparks-Withington further expanded their radio accessory business with the purchase of Home Products Corp. of
Michigan
. In 1932, the company entered a new market with the introduction of the Sparton electric refrigerator. The intense competition in this industry was largely responsible for the company's 1938 net loss of ,000, however, and the company dropped the product line by the end of the decade.
By the beginning of the 1940s, Sparks-Withington was operating five factories in
Jackson
,
Michigan
, in addition to their Canadian subsidiary's facility in
London
,
Ontario
. Annual sales topped million. Like most American manufacturers, Sparks-Withington switched to military production during World War II, manufacturing bomb hoists, communications equipment, magazine clips, and a wide variety of other military products for the war effort. With a return to peace, Sparks-Withington set out once again to expand its range of products. In 1945, the company acquired the Illinois-based Steger Furniture Manufacturing Co. to manufacture cabinets for the radio and radio-phonographs that had become the mainstay of the Sparton product line.
