Default Need some help identifying this tank circuit - attached files (01/14)

I found this box at a junk dealer and thought it would be usefully.
take a look at the pic's and let me know if you know what it is and how
it was used. I was unable to find any identifying marks ( model # /
maker etc...). I would like to use it as part of a crystal radio.
Thanks for the help.

Yikes!
Link coupled tank circuit (home built, my guess) from some really
nostalgic old Johnson parts. There isn't enough in the pictures to see
if it had the tubes to complete a push-pull final RF amplifier, or if it
was somebody's Idea of an antenna tuner.
Pictures of the back of the cabinet or an overhead of the chassis
might give better conclusions.
Great find! I'm jealous. Would make a really weird crystal set.
(got to believe that was a joke....... I'm too gullible)
