Interesting radios

I saw two nice old floorstanding radios at estate sales this weekend. One was a Zenith, chassis 1051. They are pretty common I think. I bought it as the price was reasonable.
The other was a Grunow. It was one of the biggest, heaviest floorstanders I've ever seen. It had four bands with a large telephone looking rotary dial where you could "dial" the station you wanted. It was a model 1615 with four bands. It had a speaker systen which used three drivers - two tweeters and one woofer, even though it was from the 1930's.
They wanted a lot of money for it so I passed. I couldn't find any info on it on the internet. Does anyone know anything about it?

Originally it was $335. Then half price as no one was interested in it. I was there at the very end of the sale and I assume it never sold.
