The "Handles" were in style at the time of manufacture.
So just asthetics.
Not exclusively. The forward handles, were common on radios with
a high profile and gross weight. In the event of a tip over, they
prevented the knobs/switches from being crushed, broken or the face
cracked.
Then wouldn't that be a "rollbar" and not a handle?
