1935 Aetna (Walgreen) 4 Tube TRF Radio
#7

Nice work on that little Aetna. It's one of those interesting companies we dont see too often that contracted with Detrola, Warwick, Climax, Wells Gardner etc to build sets for them. Once you look thru all the models its pretty easy to see the manufacturers "fingerprints" on most if their models.
And a nice find by the way.
