Ebonite front and
oak cabinet in art deco (Amsterdam School) style. The
cabinet has a hinged lid and three black legs on both sides. A protruding
drawer holds a complete set of coils and other material.
The radio was made by a small semi-professional
workshop, as can be seen by the materials used.
On the upper left
a
threefold coil base is visible. Below the coil base,
two tuning knobs (the left one is used for antenna
tuning), between the two
knobs a switch that can be used for
frequencies above 2000 meters. On the right three rheostats.
Below the rheostats sockets for headset or loudspeaker(s). An on/off switch is situated above the middle rheostat.
A cord set for the different voltages is situated at the
back.

Rhythm", by the Percival Mackey Orchestra, vocals Monty Woolf,
