  • Notes
  • The "Radio Collector's Guide" starting 1921 lists this Laffayette under Wholesale Radio Service Co. Inc. Rider's volume 2, page 240-4 shows a De Wald radio AC 524 and we believe it is also this one. Therefore we entered the tube line up (which might be wrong). Everything else is the same so far.

    We have not found this model in a catalog so far and therefore we link here for the description of the different catalogs.
