Stewart Warner is here
#10

I don't really understand the run on movie dial sets in recent years, while the chassis within are undoubtedly good performers the cabinets are rather plain and boring to my eyes, even for private label sets. The dials, while the mechanism are somewhat of a novelty, aren't really that attractive, just a square hole with a black and white rear projected display. My Radiola 44 and Canadian Westinghouse model 89 look about the same, though what they have is basically a drum dial with number cutouts rather then a film negative.
As I mentioned before on another thread Stewart Warner is much like Sparton, they built some high quality sets and are largely overlooked aside from a handful of what I would consider novelty models. That Stewart Warner, for example, has a fuse on the power line, most manufacturers didn't bother with that feature.
Regards
Arran
