Balkeit Model C
#7

I was looking at an old catalog from the early 1930s, and they had a number of sets with cabinets made by Berkey and Gay Furniture, one of the makes was something called a "Cadillac" which I have never heard of, it may have been a private label brand, or the mail order outfit may have assembled them using surplus chassis installed into B&G cabinets. Balkeit was one of the larger independents started in the 1920s, whom had a few good years during the radio boom, then slowly faded, then went bust or merged into another firm.

Arran
