About Tandy Showcase

 Tandy Showcase is a privately owned archival collection dedicated to documenting and celebrating the legacy of Tandy Corporation, Radio Shack, Computer City, Incredible Universe, and related history.

Each item contributes to a broader effort to document the innovation, culture, and retail experience that defined the Tandy and Radio Shack story.
