| This is a 5 tube "All Wave" (3 band) superheterodyne "tombstone" radio with an airplane dial. The chassis was manufactured by Belmont Radio Corp. The Goodyear company was founded in 1899 and became the largest tire and rubber company by 1916. The "Wings" logo, patterned after the winged foot of Mercury, was introduced in 1901.
Apparently, at least during the later 1930s, Goodyear marketed radios with their "Wings" brand. Tubes: 6F7, 6K7, 75, 6F6, 80.

The
"Archives" are maintained just for fun by Steve Adams at the Radio
Attic. When cabinet material or color differences are apparent or suspected in donated photos, I have included additional photos of certain model numbers. Due to time constraints, I must rely entirely on the accuracy of information supplied by contributors with their photographs. As such, no guarantee is made that the model numbers presented here are correct. Images may be used
