WOW look at the reostats and the tubes used on that audio amp. Look closely at the "tunning" and behind the knobs is a reostat ( a volume control ) It looks to be a multistage amp by the components if it was built at that time somewhere between 1927-1935. I dont know why the multistage trimming inless they were dc coupling the thing and had to equalize it. the globe shaped tubes in the 4-6pin sockets were gone by the mid 1930 replaced by octal and locktal tubes although ive seen a few sets produced just before WW2 still useing these tubes because they were cheep at the time thanks guys some of my early stuff looked looked that that.

taz it looks like it hooked to a tunner of some sort look closely no where do you see a cap or coil and in 1930 they were BIG! it could have been the platform for the radio they might have hooked say the first tube up as a rf amp the snd as a grid leak or regen det and the rest as some configureion of audio amps but like i said before it is not a reciver its self
