WOW!! And it HAS the "turret" over the chassis!! Often this feature was discarded in the past, usually by a "technician" unwilling to re-install it after repairs.

Nice shape too!!

Several manufacturers resorted to a single-tube class A output. For many folks five to seven watts output was plenty for their living room.

In fact, I suspect that the number of watts output a set could develop was considered in the same manner that the number of ponies under a sport car's hood was by a potential buyer. In both cases the full potential of the radio or the car would be rarely if EVER be used.
