We present new radio images, including the highest resolution image obtained to date, of the known oxygen-rich supernova remnant 1 E 0102.2-7219 in the SMC. These images reveal an almost complete shell of radio emission and a spectral index of about -0.7. The images also clearly show a previously unidentified compact component. The radio images are compared with previously published optical emission line and X-ray images, and the identification of the diameter of the supernova blast wave is briefly discussed.
