The
radio is a K.L.m. The small letter "m" means "met deurtjes"
(with doors). The same radio was also available without
doors: the K.L.z. (see pictures below) The K.L. was introduced
together with the A.C. radio K.W.S. at the Jaarbeurs Trade
Fair in Utrecht, held from February 27th until March
1st, 1928.
The first advertisement
for this radio appeared in Radio Expres on March 23rd of
that year. An earlier version of the radio had a
different front
(smaller tuning knobs with arrows and a white scale).
