All American Mohawk (model 88?)
#1

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!

It has a 10 tube TRF radio with 71A push-pull output.
