Juliette was a brand name of a company (Topps import/export) who distributed tons of low-end Asian radios throughout the US in the 60s-80s. When I was in school, I worked for a similar outfit (Alaron) who did the same basic thing (Rhapsody brand.) Quality was hit and miss, more miss than hit. But, I digress...

In the case of Alaron/Rhapsody, we rarely had any information on the stuff we worked on; if we were lucky, we might have had a photocopy of a hand drawn schematic for any particular model, but I don't remember ever having much more than that. Since Topps/Juliette was likely dealing with many of the same OEMs, I would be surprised if things were much different in their repair department and that there's a good chance that there just wasn't any literature produced for most of their products.

On the bright side, most of that stuff is relatively simple and shouldn't be to hard to figure out. When new, that stuff was plagued by poor solder joints, broken PC traces and bad earphone jacks, so I'd expect to find that sort of thing in addition to a bunch of 30 year old failed electrolyitics.
