Another Godsey's Store table top radio is one with the wire-wound tunable loop antenna set on top. In looking closely at the radio image RebeccaLee told us about, I recognize it shows a partial image of this same radio Here is the first image (Fig.1) I found showing a full front view of the radio, I found on S9 The Hot Rod, I see 4 knobs across the bottom mounted on the vertical plane and possibly 2 dials on a surface angled in away from vertical. It would be fun to find out what brand & model this radio is. Any guesses? So this radio turns out to be an RCA Radiola 20, made in 1925. It operates using 5 vacuum tubes and is battery powered. .
