Hinweis zu den hinzugefügten Bildern.
Die Skalenblenden sind nicht original. Laut Innenetikett und Lichtschatten auf der Frontplatte müssen dort ursprünglich kreisrunde 360 Grad-Skalen gesessen haben. Ich habe in der Literatur weder eine Abbildung vom Model 50 noch eines mit kreisrunden Skalenblättern gesehen.
Die einzige Abbildung in "Radio Manufacturers ... Vol. 3" auf Seite 184 zeigt wohl das Nachfolgemodell "51" mit 180 Grad Skalen.
Ich habe weitere Fotos hinzugefügt - diese erscheinen jedoch nicht. Wie wird der link "Mehr Bilder" aktiviert??
