Thanks, the radios in the background are a 1937 Emerson AC 149 (with incorrect grille cloth for the time being) white plaskon with black bakelite cabinet and back cover (this is one of the Emersons with 3-piece case.) This radio is 99.99% perfect, apart from the grille cloth, that is.
The others are 1949 little sisters Silvertone 9001 (ivory) and 9000 (brown). These were made by Arvin for Sears.
All these radios have been cleaned up, recapped, realigned, and play great. The ivory Silvertone needed a little paint mixed to match and a few nicks touched up here and there with a toothpick. From 2 feet away you can't tell anything: it's the original paint job.
