1931 Brunswick 12A mini console

I just acquired this from a friend. The set is so small it can be described as a large tombstone radio on legs! It may be hard to believe, but the set is entirely original. I spent about 4 hours refreshing the cabinet. The original floral grill cloth is very delicate and I haven't seen another example with it still in place. It's unusual in that the small center knob is on/off/volume and pulls out in three positions. With each position, the dial lights in three different colors, and tones. The large tuning dial requires a gently pressing inwards to activate. The rather odd chassis is difficult to repair and eventually I will have that done. I just get a whisper out of it right now. I like it just as a 1930's piece of art!
