  • Notes
  • Highlights of the Silvertone 111A 9-Tube Screen Grid (see Riders 6-4 as model 111 which is for 111A and 111B and for 112 - the same schematic used) are a tone selector, 5-gang shielded tuning condenser for "Super-sharp selectivity", dynamic speaker with two field coils, phonograph pick-up jack, push-pull output stage. The Silvertone 111A is a "Queen Anne model" with five-ply walnut construction, aprons veneered in rich curly maple. Sliding doors. The measurement is from the top. The order number 57DM1110 1/4 is for the cash price $ 120 and 57DM1111 1/4 for easy payment resulting in $ 132. Including tubes it is order number 57DM1112 for $ 139 and 57DM1113 if for easy payment, resulting $ 153.

    There is a model Silvertone 111B with the same chassis but something like an early chair side model as a library table. Both can also have a transformer for 25 (to 60) cycles when ordered specially. See details and summaries about Sears catalogs etc.
