I don't have the data on that Bosch set, but if it's one of the sets with the square, full illuminated dial scale, it should be a pretty nice set, decently designed, and easy to service.

In the early thirties, American Bosch made radios for Westinghouse. RCA had been making them, but around 1932 or so, Westinghouse switched to Bosch. I have a few of the 1936-ish Westinghouse sets, that are glaringly Bosch. I've re-capped a couple of them, and they're nice sets.
