Thanks guys. I believe Dewald radios were sold by L&C Mayers Co. of NY. I can't find much about the company, but they did have a big catalog like Montgomery Wards and Sears. I don't know if they had a brick and mortar store, but likely they did, and likely it was located on 5th Ave. I need to do more research about that. Dewald seemed to be their house-brand named radios. They're good, but average quality sets, unlike Montgomery Wards Airline radios which were often very high quality Well-Gardner sets.

**Update - It seems that L & C Mayer's Co., was originally Lindsay and Curr Company, known as "Sibley's" of Rochester, NY. That was their main store. Dewald seems to be their house brand radios. Likely the bulk of these sets are to be found in the northeast. I do agree that the catalog number IS the model number. The rear tag does state "Dewald" and "Pierce Airo", which I believe became one in the same. It one of the stories where small radio manufacturer's were absorbed by another radio manufacturer. it's can get very complicated.
