- Notes
- The Sears Silvertone 106A 6-Tube Screen Grid Battery Set has a single illuminated drum type dial tuning and volume control on front - with kilocycles and meters shown. Low-Boy type with 5-ply paneling on front in genuine butt walnut veneer. Genuine marquetry inlaid work on front of cabinet. Fluted corner posts and neatly turned legs. Reader's schematic Seras 6-3. This early model 106A from 1930 should not be confused with the model 106 from 1931. It has probably the same chassis/schematic but you can see differences on the cabinets - for instance loudspeaker grille.
