Emerson Model 321 AW "Oriental Chest" Radio (1933)
This is a somewhat rare
oriental case 2-band
radio. The front of the
case features an oriental
scene hand-painted in
lacquers. The sides show
hand-painted flowers.
The doors open to reveal
the loud speaker grille
and radio controls. The
top has a handle and an
illuminated jewel. Front
panel controls are
volume/on/off and tuning.
The brass accent around
the tuning knob is
graduated 0-100 rather
than in frequency for the
two wavebands.
