  • Notes
  • Central Station Equipment Co. "Skylark -- Messenger Of The Air" dry cell battery radio manufactured ca. 1922-23 in New York City. Since we believe that the WD12 was not available in 1922 we note 1923 only for the year unless somebody gives us proof of another tube line up or other dates for the tube.

    The radio uses three WD-12 tubes and has a built-in battery box in the lower rear quadrant of the cabinet.
