The early 50s Grundigs have a dipole foil antenna attached to the inside of the cabinet approx. 19-20 inches extending from center of the cabinet down each side for FM and a ferrite rod loop antenna mounted above the chassis for AM. The Graetz 4R-216 I'm working on now has just a pair of 20 AWG wires for the FM. The FM antenna is then fed to the radio with twin lead wire. Let me know if you want a photo.
