Schematic diagram of the Lafayette and York sets. Note that I
misspelled Toshiba, the "T" looked like an "F" on the transistors.
Separate local oscillator in the front end.
A set a few models later (note similar layout of design of case and chassis):

I don't know who the manufacturer was, but it looks like they made sets
for Lafayette, York and Truetone.

This radio above uses no transistors unless you count the thousands of
transistors inside the two IC's used.
