- Notes
-
According to an undated letter from J. Matheson, Bell, 1257 Fullerton Ave., Chicago, (circular A 5-15-33 5000) the model 525 was sold to distributors for $ 14.95. We can assume that the circular was made/sent in May 1933.
Mr. Matheson Bell starts as owner wth the failure of OZARKA INC. and with a new start since 3 months. He mentions a new car radio model Z6Z1 with 6 tubes for a dealer price of $ 23.95. Then he writes about the "compact" radio, model 525, and announces a model 625 as a six tube super to come. Then follows a model 292 battery radio for farmers. At last he names three models which are not enclosed in the circulars: model 902 as 10 tube super, model 222 as 12 tube super and the mentioned model 292, a 9 tube battery super. Bell shows the prices on the back of his letter and informs that he has purchased the entire repair department of OZARKA INC., having stock for Ozarka and Viking radios.
