For TA Forbes who wanted a photo of the speaker and chassis in the RCA? custom cabinet set. I don't know if it is an RCA set or not. The only label says "For Best Reception, connect RCA World-Wide Antenna to these terminals" and has the RCA Logo, etc. But there is no ID of the actual maker. There are 3 red ink stamped markings on the back of the chassis. There is "6Q9", red box with " ?????/????? 229" and another red box with "Rating A/ See Label/ 2 words in French" Also a stamped in ser. no. There is a Magic Eye tuning tube at the top.

The speaker looks like it was probably replaced.

The cabinet is definitely custom. The back of the cabinet is all wood, but it is hinged at top for access.

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photos which were attached to this post are no longer available.
