1930s Stromberg-Carlson Tombstone Radio need help identifying model number
#1

Hello everyone today I took a trip up to Michigan and picked up a 1930s Stromberg-Carlson Tombstone Radio that I need help finding a model number for it because all of the model number information tags are either damaged or missing from the radio and I know there's a website out there that you can use to find a radio model number by typing in the tube line up but I can't for the life of me remember the name of the website and I need this radio's model number to look up some service data for it for electrically restoring it, and also locating a replacement tuning dial for it because the original phoenolic tuning dial is broken and I need to replace it to help make this radio functional and complete again.

See pictures below.

   

   

   

Do any of you guys recognize this radio and what model it might be? 

I appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks.

OK, yeah, I meant to say Stewart-Warner not Stromberg-Carlson, I tend to get those brands mixed up.

Really, I used to get Setchell Carlson mixed up with Stromberg-Carlson, but never mixed up either one with Stewart Warner. Stewart Warner was in Chicago (Belleville, Ontario in Canada) whereas Stromberg Carlson was in Rochester, New York (Toronto, Ontario in Canada). I don't think Setchell Carlson set were ever marketed in Canada, and they don't seem to have been as prolific in terms of models, or production, as either Stromberg-Carlson nor Stewart Warner. Stewart Warner used to manufacture speedometers and other dashboard instruments for cars, and even manufactured grease guns for a time, so car enthusiasts are familiar with the company, some are even surprised to find out that they got involved in the radio and TV business.
