Does yours state Motorola Inc or Galvin Mfg. Co.? That might the first model after they changed the corporate name.
I opened the back and it has one tag that just reads "Motorola". I know there was another more deluxe version, I believe with a front drop-down door, three knobs, and possible AC/DC. I would suspect this was their first line of battery only portables in 1939.
