Mr Lim Chuan Jer, General Manager of SPH Magazines, said: "We wanted to pay tribute to the early days of technology, and how it evolved into what we know today. The Album of Old Gadgetry is a great way to showcase how technology has come such a long way and the enthusiastic response we've gotten so far is terrific!"
