Airline console
#10

Jayce;
  They were probably made by the same manufacturer, other then Philco, RCA, G.E, and Atwater Kent I don't know of too many radio manufacturers that manufactured their own speakers. Speaker manufacture was something that most radio companies preferred to outsource, probably because they thought that the extra tooling costs were not justified by the volume. Sometimes you can identify who made the speaker by the shape of the basket and the rear bracket that holds the pole piece and field coil/magnet.
