This is the Emerson EM-100 cabinet  The EM-100 radio  shares  the same chassis as the 295 except for the addition of a  magic eye tube.

When purchasing either of these radios, the user would have to specify 25 or 60 Hz operation. The schematic indicates the different part numbers for the 25 and 60 Hz power transformers and the 25 and 60 Hz synchronous motors in the the phonograph. (Image via Canadian Marconi)
