Mom's cousin runs auctions in a small country town. Nobody was interested
in a dozen or so radios and since I have been working on restoring one of
cousin's radios, she called on me to get them outta the warehouse. I came
home with a dozen radios, with 2 more consoles yet to be picked up. One
of them I can find no information on at all.
Shurtone on the emblem on front and on the paper label on the chassis it
says Model 576. It's 5 tube AM 120v. No tubes in the sockets to give any
clues there and no schematic.







You'll find more info on it under it's more commonly seen brand name,
Musicaire,
model 576.

Thank you, Jim!
Armed with that information, I have found a schematic & info as a Detrola
576. Here is where I found the explanation of why the name on the cabinet is
not Detrola:
