In case anyone cares... According to
http://measuringworth.com/calculators/uscompare/
In 2006, $190.00 from 1924 is worth:
$2,240.00 using the Consumer Price Index
$1,865.91 using the GDP deflator
$0.00 using the value of consumer bundle
$7,477.39 using the unskilled wage
$10,988.91 using the nominal GDP per capita
$28,832.58 using the relative share of GDP
This does not consider compound interest, it's strictly a 'real dollar'
conversion.
$2,240.00 would equal the 2006 purchasing power of $190.00 in 1924.
Let's suppose you had no interest in the radio and invested the $190
instead...
In 2006, $190 saved in 1924 would be worth:
# $3,371.87 if saved in a short-term asset.
# $21,164.92 if saved in a long-term asset at a term of 1 years.
# $21,764.52 if saved in a DJA portfolio.

Think of this as 'Dollar DXing' ;)
