Circa 1930, General Motors only made produced home radios from 1928 - 1931. All were on the "upscale" expensive sets most with very fine cabinetry like this unusual model with no speaker grill. The speaker is mounted aimed at the floor at about a 30 degree forward angle.

Other than the speaker placing there are two other unusual features for such an early set; the bass - treble control and "slide rule" tuning. I believe this to be the first console to use this type of tuning dial which was not the style until the late 30's.

I have restored the electronics in the above example but the cabinet still has the original finish. Well shielded 8 tube TRF with push-pull #45 output tubes give excellent performance.

I also have the "Smoking Stand" remote control accessory that I will restore and post later.
