- Notes
- Cathedral radio with unusual Hammond clock mounted inside the speaker. The clock does not have a magnet around the motor and seems to run off the speaker coil located just above it. I think the radio is about 1931. 6 tubes. Made by Radio-Chron Co. Kansas City MO, USA. You have to put your thumb on a small knob at the bottom of the dial and spin it to get it going. The pilot light uses 2.5 Volt. (973 is the chassis number).
