From newspaper "Informaţia Bucureştiului" ("The information of Bucharest") - since 22nd of Dec. 1989 "Libertatea" ("The Freedoom"), year IV, no. 1139, Saturday 23 the of May 1957, page 2, an article about tv antenas intallation.
The article sayes "A new speciality
The tv antenas are starting to enter in the image of the city. In the same time, a new kind of job appeared: tv tehcnicians, meaning specialists in istalling, checking and reparing apparates (devices) with screen.
Our image is taken from the roof of the house from no. 5 [V.A.] Ureche Street, where 2 days ago a tv set was installed. The one who is installing the antena is technician Valeriu Peterescu, from the team of specialists of "Radioprogres" craftsmen cooperative".
The 1st public broadcasting of the Romanian television was less then half of year before, 31st Dec. 1956/1st of Jan. 1957 and acording to statistics (I don't know when they made them) there where 2,588 people possesing a tv set in Bucharest (13,831 in 1958... by 1963 I think there where around 100,000). A tv was very expensive in the begening, a small
"Rekord" costing 4,488 Romanian Lei ("Lions") in Feb. of 1957. Wages (sallaries) in Feb. 1957: 220 Lei (minimal - 350 starting from 1st of May), 619 Lei (avarage).
Up untill around 1994-1995, "Libertatea" (an Bucharest issued newspaper) had a heading called "Informaţia Bucureştiului" when talking about Bucharest... in the memory of old days.
The article is sad if you compare the 2 maps. A park is now there because the street was wiped out during the '80's to make room for the plans of the horrible couple. The street was going from near the point where Bogan Petriceicu Haşdeu (Hashdeu) Street meet the qauy of Dāmboviţa and went down to Izvor (Water Spring) Street.
