Today in history - On August 28, 1922, historians believe the first paid commercial was distributed via radio. It was an ad for apartment rentals, presented by the Queensboro Corp.
And radio advertising soon became a media staple.
Who among those pioneers would have imagined the deluge of advertising and marketing opportunities - and the amazing variety of media - just 89 years later?
FYI - some audio clips from the great early radio ads.
