sagefinds Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I picked this up at a Colorado flea market many decades ago,wondering if anyone has any ideas who built it or any information. It has several gauges,mostly Weston but also Westinghouse,Hoyt meter,Electro Products Co trouble shooter microfarads,Elite- Manhattan Electrical Supply Co,and a Stewart Warner Dynamic Reproducer,whatever that is. Along with many switches,bulbs,contacts and a Ford coil on the side. Looks like a motor and other stuff inside. Appreciate any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt G Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Left over from filming the movie Frankenstein in the mid 1930s. Gave Boris Karloff an extra jolt as the main character. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 The Stewart Warner item will be found by Google. It appears to be a transformer used with S-W radio speakers circa 1929. This home grown apparatus might be a period radio tester, or who knows what? For display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

28 Chrysler Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 The Stewart Warner 950 receivers were from the late 1920s. The radios were made as 110 Volt AC units and what was called "farm sets" that was battery powered with 1 1/2 v. 6v. and 90v. batteries. It appears to have been modified to also test the battery radios and then something else. The MT, LT, HT and IGN. throws me off. Most of the meters have been changed, Stewart Warner had their own.
