All American Mohawk (model 88?) - Bob Andersen - 08-24-2012

I got a tip about an interesting radio on craigslist and set out yesterday morning to check it out. I came back with an All American Mohawk Corp Lyric radio!

According to an original ad it's a Seminole Spanish Vargueno console. $110 extra for AC operation!
"the Mohawk Pyramonic Speaker achieves a depth and clarity of expression that seems beyond improvement - to excel it will require necromantic powers not possessed by man" Icon_eek
