| The Westinghouse 5T106 "RiseMaster" clock radio has an attractive painted Bakelite cabinet with a plastic grille. Note on the back "Manufactured For Westinghouse," about 1950. This radio has clone sisters, the Jewel 5057 "WakeMaster" and the Sylvania 540 "TimeRiser." The same cabinet mold was used again to build the Jewel 960 and the Trav-Ler 55-39 plastic radios. The Trav-Ler is a later model colored plastic cabinet with the name glued on, rather than the name in the casting. The manufacturer of the Jewel 5057 clock radio is the Jewel Radio Corp, New York. I think it is reasonable to say Jewel built all of these radios. They tried to get into TV, then went bankrupt in the mid-50's. |

RadioGallery.net is maintained just for fun by Steve Adams at the Radio Attic. When cabinet material or color differences are apparent or suspected in donated photos, I have included additional photos of certain model numbers. Due to time constraints, I must rely entirely on the accuracy of information supplied by contributors with their photographs. As such, no guarantee is made that the model numbers presented here are correct. Images may be used
