Here is a picture of a 90V/1.5V powersupply built into a nice box with graphics to run a farm radio.

It looks like this is a 1.5 volt filament radio. Any recommendations for battery replacement circuitry that anyone has used? I have the background to tweak any design that shows up, but a proven design may help me to find just the right parts.
