  • Notes
  • The Silvertone 1404 has a "Personal Tone Control. According to an ad for the Silvertone models 1404 Wilmington, 1402 Musette, 1430 Wynecliffe and 1154 Alden (a grandfather clock radio), those models were marketed in 1931 for season 1931/32. Sometimes we find only the number without name, but most probably it is the same model. We keep one only until we have the proof that there are different models for the same number and time.
