Vacuum tube radio receiver `` Spring ''.
Tube radios.DomesticSince May 1949, the vacuum tube radio receiver "Vesna" has been produced by the Moscow Radio Plant. At the Moscow Radio Plant, in the laboratory of V.G. Gusev at the end of 1948, the Moskvich-V radio receiver was developed. Its mass production began in 1949. The demand for the receiver exceeded the supply, so it was decided to transfer the parallel production of the model to the Voronezh and Aleksandrovsky radio plants. After modernization, the receiver of the 2nd version at both plants remained with the name Moskvich-V, and at the Moscow Radio Plant it was renamed the Vesna radio receiver. Additionally, the production of the Vesna radio receiver was transferred to a backup plant in the city of Saratov and to the Moscow Radio Plant Krasny Oktyabr where, after its short release and the next second modernization of the Moskvich-V radio receiver (3rd version), all models, at all factories began to be called "Moskvich-V". The design of the 'Spring' radio was the same as in the photographs shown, only with the words 'Spring' instead of 'Moskvich'.
