info request for an old receiver

In article ,
says...
I just picked up an old Realistic receiver that has 5 bands; AM, FM, Marine
Band, SW1 & SW2. It's a rectangular receiver taller than it is wide, and
runs off 4 C-cell batteries (or an electrical outlet adaptor). All I can
find on it for a model is "12-1433" on a label on the back, along with the
following info: 23 solid state devices, 12 transistors, 10 diodes, 1
thermistor. Does anyone have any pointers to specs, pix, manuals, whatever?

Look for a nearly identical looking (it is exactly the same inside)
radio sold under several names, the most common one, and the one I had
was Lloyd's. I believe there was a Philco version, and there was a very
similar looking Lafayette one too. Not a great radio by any means, but I
enjoyed my Lloyd's enough to buy a Realistic one at a garage sale later
on. They (I think Lloyd's was the actual maker) cranked them out for
years. I saw one at a neighbor's garage sale with some odd name on it,
they had brought it with them from Australia. I didn't buy that one.
