Identify This Cathedral
#1

So...I've been home from work the past two days due to illness. No fun. While trying to take it easy, I've been watching the earliest episodes of Lassie (aka Jeff's Collie) via YouTube.

The cathedral radio in the Millers' parlor puzzles me as to its manufacturer:

A closer look:

Three knobs, half-moon dial, round speaker opening with cut-outs, inset panel.

What say you, folks? Jackson-Bell, maybe? Any ideas of a model number?

Spot on, I'd say.

It looks like a Jackson Bell judging by the grille.

The grill cutouts don't look quite the same, but I believe Brenda Ann has correctly identified the set. Icon_thumbup I think Jackson-Bell cathedrals usually have variations in their grill cutouts?
