In what will be an ongoing series, I’m posting photos and related materials my co-author, Boisy Pitre, has received and archived during the research phase of our critically acclaimed book on Tandy’s (Radio Shack’s) Color Computer series, CoCo: The Colorful History of Tandy’s Underdog Computer. While the book itself contains quite a few exclusive images, naturally, there were many more that simply couldn’t fit. This series resolves that issue; this is part 01.
