It is a combined hat and walking cane. It allowed the user to tune in and listen to radio stations from around the world whilst on the move. The Social Communicator (1932) was a simple and sophisticated piece of apparatus that made it possible to communicate with other users wirelessly. Using Morse Code technology, messages could be sent and received with ease.
