A now antique radio featured in an old English textbook - wa2ise - 04-25-2020

From an English textbook "Voyages in English, 6th Year", copyright 1951. Looks like a bakelite tube radio on that windowsill.  May even be a Philco... A modern set back in 1951.

Had this book in 6th grade in 1966 (Yes, this school had no budget for newer books, like every school). This book had a section for creative writing, and another section for grammar. My teachers only did the grammar section, as it was on the annual standardized tests There was no way to do computer scored tests of creative writing back then, or even today.
