Vitus advertising postcard from around this time.

It's surprisingly hard to identify such things. The number of knobs and details might be inaccurate for reasons of artistic freedom, often the more exquisite and luxurious sets were not advertised in newspapers and magazines: meaning you'd have to have a succession of paper catalogs to pinpoint things, and even then...

It's probably the Royal-Broadcast from end-of-1924 in a meuble. Note

  • the size is completely off
  • they conveniently left out the speaker

😂

Au Bon Marché catalog page. An european pioneer of retail, since 1989 it's "Le Bon Marché". Today it belongs to the Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton group, enuff said.

It's from an undated brochure, but possibly towards the end of the year 1925 (autumn/winter). Note the Lampe Micro Métal which came out in about August.

Other interesting bits:
OI-34196 is a GMR "poste à bobines coronna" with one fixed and one movable coil with some sort of gradation for the coupling. I never found out what their selling point was...

OI-34197 Radio-Secteur Universel 4004 by Péricaud, for DC and for AC (it comes with an eliminator despite the name "secteur" with means "mains"). For AC, it was equipped with the Radio-Secteur tubes mentioned earlier.

OI-34202 Haut-parleur Lumière (a Gaumont model introduced end of 1923 already): folded and starched - or otherwise stiffenened - paper hooked up to a telephone driver, 32 cm in diameter. The system was designed by Louis Lumière, a cinema pioneer.

<コーン紙に孔が空いたスピーカーの修理>

1950年代に造られた真空管ラジオを分解したところスピーカーのコーン紙に孔が空いていました。おそらく過去に修理した人が不注意で物をぶつけて孔が空いたのでしょう。

古いラジオなのでこの程度で極端に音質が変わるとは思いませんが、孔を塞ぐ事にしました。

Hallo #vintagehifi fans,

vor einigen Monaten haben wir begonnen #NF Stecker für alte Radios zu bauen.
Die Anfrage kam hier aus dem #fediverse.

Nun war unser #NFTA Stecker für die Philetta ausverkauft und wir mussten nachproduzieren. Hurra!
Das hätten wir gar nicht erwartet.
