The New Radiation Recipe Book, c1935 by mikeyashworth Via Flickr: With a fine advert for the 'New World' cooker on the cover this is one of a vast series of cookery books and leaflets issued by the 'Radiation Company' - based in Birmingham, Radiation was an amalgamation (founded in 1919) of various well-known makers of gas cookers, stoves and heating appliances spread throughout the UK. One advantage of this linking up was the ability to market the Group's products under single trade names and the 'New World' brand was one of their strongest in the domestic market. Radiation claimed to have introduced the widespread use of the 'Regulo' control for ovens, the precursor to modern temperature control. This version of the New World family was available in 'Rado' porcelain (stove) enamel colours.
