I have what I believe is an early to mid 1930's PA amplifier from Lafayette Radio Manufacturing Company, New York City. I have taken some JPEG photos of it and have the tube #s which are in-line across the front of the chassis as follows. 53 57 53 2A5 2A5 83-V
I looked through every schematic on your site and it did not appear there. I haven't found any other photos or info anywhere else on the net after many hours of searching. I wish to restore this for mersonal use and would like to find a proper schematic. There are no model numbers listed on the
amp inside or out. If anyone would like to see the
photos, I will gladly send them. Thanks!

I enjoyed the site and schematics so much I made a donation. It's great that there are sites like these and I hope you can keep it going. Thanks!

Essex,

You may also try doing some research under Wholesale Radio Service Company.

Thanks, I tried searching Wholesale Radio before posting to no avail. I'm down to posting these photos in the hope that someone has on or has seen one of these before as there is no model number to be found. I appreciate that you looked, Radiodoc. Here's another photo of the back.

Go to the resourses block above and click on Lafayett model C-136. That might get you started so you can draw your own schematic by noting the differences between that one and yours. Who knows, if you are lucky that one WILL be yours.

Wait, wait. I got something wrong here. Shouldn't try to think with only one cuppa coffee in me. Will get right number and send to you. Lewis

Thanks, Lewis. I see there are some similarities I overlooked the first time around. I'll let everyone know when I investigate further.

Well, don't just stop with the 100-A, that is the beginning of several amplifiers. Studying their schematics might give you some idea of what the designers were thinking when they built those amplifiers.
