    Hi there, I have come across this radio from Stromberg Carlson. I cannot find it anywhere online nor can I find it on radio forums. Can an antique expert tell me what model this is and era? I am guessing the 1930s?

    Hi Pierre, I did a quick google on 'Stromberg-Carlson' and found a couple of sites. One starts out with, ' In 1894, Alexander Graham Bell's patent for the telephone expired. Stromberg and Carlson, Chicago employees of the American Bell Telephone Company, each invested $500 to establish a firm to manufacture equipment (primarily subscriber sets) for sale to independent telephone companies.
    Stromberg-Carlson was originally located in Chicago, with Carlson managing manufacture and Stromberg responsible for marketing. Stromberg-Carlson quickly established a reputation for reliable equipment and stable prices. . . etc

    Not sure how to put a link up here but here goes:

    Yeaay! Hope it works. Otherwise cut and paste. Or just do the same search and you'll find them. Some sites put a hyphen between Stromberg and Carlson.

    Your radio must be from the 1930s by the lines. Very smart. One of the sites I saw will probably give you the model number although it should be on the radio itself if the workings are in the case.
