I'm beginning to think this Crosley is a Frankenset. Just in time for Halloween. There are two Crosley radio chassis: lower model=134, upper model=72. Why two broadcast chassis in one radio? The speaker is a Magnavox. The cabinet is 18 inch high x 16 inch wide X 12 inches deep so if the cabinet isn't original to the set I might convert it to a 12 inch mechanical TV.

Maybe it's an early diversity receiver, meant to use two longwire antennas set 90 degrees to each other.

It looks like the top mechanism is a Crosley model 7-2 converter versus model 72 radio.
See http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/crosley_7.html. The Crosley 7-2 converts shortwave to a signal within regular broadcast range. Last edited by rld-tv01; 10-24-2014 at 09:23 PM. Reason: add chassis photo
