This receiver was one of the very few that had an audio section built in. The Rawls TV-185 was the "complete package" when it came to television in the early 1930s. The only other examples of mechanical television receivers with built in audio that I know of are very early Western Visionette receivers before they were built in the table top cabinet that we all know.

Does any one else know of any mechanical televisions with built a in audio section?
