Are those diagonal strips of wood only braces or did the set have a baffle of some kind behind the speaker? The ground clips on the chassis make it look like the tubes were intended to use "Goat" shields, the metal tube and the GT style tube are wrong of course. I noticed that the broadcast band stops at a point just past 1500 kc, so to get the upper end of the broadcast band you would have to switch over to the Police band, sort of like a Philco 60, between 1.7 MC and 3.5 MC that band is virtually a dead zone. As is often the case on sets from this era the spread on the shortwave bands isn't that great, not too bad at the lower end but a little crowded at the top end. It is a very nice set for a department store radio, was it made by Colonial or did Stewart Warner make this set for Sears?
