It's 1937 10-S-153. 10 tube chassis and a really good performer. The dial has bulls eye tuning which is a series of circles and a little shadow dot that moves to the center as the station gets stronger, very cool. Someone had antiqued it with white and gold paint which is the reason I got it for $80.00. The paint was so thick that it actually preserved what was below. I did have to refinish it but the veneer is outstanding and the lighting bolt knobs show no wear at all. This is my favorite radio and one that will never leave my possession.
